Weekly Wednesday morning classes in English with top notch teachers on a wide variety of topics, in partnership with Matnas Gush Etzion’s Katedra. Wednesday classes are open to women only.
Featuring:
Rabbanit Shani Taragin, and Dr. Lisa Fredman.
Classes take place at Beit Knesset Tiferet Avot, Netzach Yerushalayim St., Dekel, Efrat.
We will investigate stories in Tanach which describe women living on the fringe of society: Widows, Witches & Wayward Women, paying careful attention to words and phrases. Our understanding of these narratives will be enhanced through the study of both Medieval & Modern Commentaries; all in an attempt to better comprehend and appreciate these women's thoughts and actions, cognizant of the time period and milieu, in which they lived.
For women. In English.
Turning prophets and prophecy inside-out. Our text-based study of Nakh will investigate the complex and evolving role of the Prophet/ess in Ancient Israel in both the public and private domains. We will spotlight numerous Neviim (such as Shmuel, Devorah, Natan, Huldah, Yeshayahu, Yirmiyahu & Yechezkel) to better understand the intensity of their role, the self-sacrifice demanded and their significant impact on the lives of the King and the nation.
