Great Jewish Thinkers
Thursday Evenings, March 2 - 30 // 7:00 p.m. // at CBI and Zoom
Starts this week! Sign up today!
Join Rabbi Helaine Ettinger for a five-week course covering the ideas of ten great Jewish philosophers. Each session will compare two philosophies and discuss the connection to our lives and views of the world, God, and humanity. For this study together it is requested that each participant obtain a copy of "Great Jewish Thinkers" by Naomi Passachoff, Behrman House, 1992. New and used copies can be purchased online through Amazon and eBay.

Kaddish: Its Origins, Evolution, and Music
Monday Mornings, March 6 - April 10 // 9:30 a.m. // Zoom
Kaddish is the most frequently recited prayer in all of Jewish liturgy punctuating every service, up to 13 times daily!  Yet it is the prayer most closely associated with death and mourning. Join Len Hausman as we take a deep dive into the origins of this heartfelt prayer dating to the early first millennium when it was a mainly said in the study hall. We will then move on to an exploration of how Kaddish became a prayer for mourners, which was a relatively late innovation - not becoming fully standard until the 16th century. In the final two of our six sessions we will learn about the music of Kaddish, both in its traditional liturgical functions, and as focus of musical settings from the Renaissance to the 21st century.

Hebrew Reading Crash Course
Sunday Mornings, March 12 - April 23 // 9:30-11:00 a.m. // at CBI
Interested in learning the fundamentals of reading Hebrew. Join us for this stress-free "crash course" led by Susan Gordon.  The course is designed for those with little or no background in Hebrew and concentrates on teaching the Hebrew alphabet and reading skills. The goal of this introductory program is to teach participants to learn to read Hebrew in as few as five weekly sessions.
