How do we build a space for sacred energy that is not meant to last? Explore the conversations of the Talmudic Rabbis as they try to figure out what a sukkah is, how to build one, and what it all means. This is a beginner/intermediate course in the skills needed to analyze and interpret the Talmud. Thanks to an innovative pedagogical design, all instruction and learning will take place in English. No Hebrew is required or expected for participation in the course.

An introduction to reading the Torah portion with classical commentators

The Zohar is a Jewish grimoire, a spell book. But like any grimoire, the powers are only unlocked if you know how to use it. In this course, we will learn how to access the Zohar. We will carefully explore the Zohar's raw materials: biblical verses and kabbalistic symbols. We will taste them with our minds and mouths, until we can get inside the process the Zohar uses to fashion the verses and symbols into vehicles for connection with the divine. The course is open to students of all levels. We will study all texts in the original and in English translation.

Explore the weekly Torah portion with art and community! Each week a new creative prompt will inspire you to discover new ways of relating to our oldest sacred text. No art experience or Torah knowledge expected. Taught by Liana Wertman.
