Miriam and Bernard H. Sokol Hebrew High School presents the Jewish Teen Project

FIRST 9-WEEK SESSION:

October 5-December 7
Tuesdays 7:00-8:00 p.m. on Zoom

Timeless Lessons from Age-Old Stories
Taught by Rabbi Kramer

The Talmud contains some of the most amazing stories ever told. Some of them are provocative, some of them are strange, and some of them are simply unbelievable. But all of them have timeless lessons to teach us about morality, ethics, and what it means to be a human being. Each week we read some of these stories together and seek to apply their lessons to the contemporary issues that define our life. The stories we read and the lessons we learn will stay with you forever!

Jewish Perspectives on Current Social Issues
Taught by Rabbi Freedman and Rabbi Schwab

So many current debates about social issues actually have their origins in classic Jewish sources. We will examine a number of these topics - environmentalism, inclusion, antisemitism, and more - through video clips, conversation, and Jewish texts.
