The 4 T's: TIME, Tefilah, Text, and Tongue, The Foundations of our Tradition

  • A Ner Shalom Zoom Room 85 La Plaza Cotati, CA, 94931 United States (map)

Taught by Reb Irwin

Today’s session: Time
An introduction to the rhythm of Jewish time – days, months, feasts, fasts, and the sweet weekly return of Shabbat.

Upcoming sessions:
Tefilah: An introduction to Jewish prayer and the prayer book, looking at the history, order, structure, and constant reworking of our liturgy.

Text: A look at the Jewish library: what are our formative texts – biblical, rabbinic and mystical? How do we use them today?

Tongue: Hebrew can be an impediment to Jewish engagement for many of us. Reb Irwin gives a crash course in Hebrew structure and key vocabulary to help make Hebrew more of a window than a wall.
