1 Description: Instructor (s): Class Dates: Registration Deadline: Registration contact: Beth El Synagogue Center (re)introduction to Judaism I didn t grow up with any Jewish education at all. I went to Hebrew school but I didn t learn anything! As children, so many of us did not have access to a Jewish education or we don t remember much at all from Hebrew school. This class is intended to introduce people to Judaism for the first time or re-introduce it to people as adults. This class will start from the beginning and delve into topics about the Jewish calendar, life-cycle, ethics, textual tradition, and ways in which Judaism can address modern questions. Some topics include: Jewish Holidays; the real differences between Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform Judaism; Who is a Jew; What is the Torah vs The Bible vs The Talmud; Prayer; What is Happening in the Sanctuary on Shabbat, etc. Rabbi David Schuck Three Wednesday evenings a month, starting November 7:30 PM The class will take place in participant s homes, with plenty of wine and no judgement! Limited space available, registration will be determined on a first come, first serve basis Rabbi Josh Dorsch, jdorsch@bethelnr.org
2 Description: Beth El Synagogue Center Jew vs. Jew Jewish history is punctuated by periodic conflict among Jews. These conflicts have often resulted in Jewish blood spilled by Jews. Some of these conflicts brought about the utter destruction of the Jewish community in the LOI (Land of Israel) and resulted in a 2,000 years exile. The course will begin by exploring the conflicts that arose in In Biblical times, manifested themselves in late antiquity, the middle-ages and in the early modern period in Europe. Finally, the course will examine the current conflict related to the LOI. A conflict between Messianic Judaism and Secular Judaism, the resolution of which is critical to defining the future character of the State of Israel. We will examine the long history of the Jew vs Jew phenomenon by studying source documents, some of which have been translated from Hebrew by the instructor for the first time. Instructor (s): Ze ev Aviezer Class Dates: 4 Tuesdays, May 16, 23, 30 and June 6 7:30 9:00 PM $100 Registration contact: Beth El Synagogue Center of New Rochelle Ze ev Aviezer, zeev3@optonline.net

Anti-Israel Sentiment: Why does Israel perpetually raise the ire of the entire world? Preemptive Strikes: What are the ethics of preemptive strikes and collateral damage? Civilian Casualties: How should Israel protect itself against an enemy that hides behind human shields? Captured Territories: What should Israel do with territories captured during the Six-Day War? Land for Peace: What lies at the heart of the land-for-peace debate?

7 Description Westchester Reform Temple King David "David, melech Yisrael, chai, chai, v kayam." "David, king of Israel, lives and endures." The words of the popular Hebrew children s song ring true: King David s legacy endures to the present day, as the quintessential poet and musician, the chosen one of God, even as a Messianic figure. David has inspired countless generations of artists, musicians, and authors, who seek to give new expression to this beloved Biblical figure. But there have been many great Jewish leaders; what makes David unique? Join us in a year-long study of one of our tradition s most intriguing and complex personalities. This course, taught by our clergy, will explore the many facets of King David, from triumphant military hero, to inspired musician, to monarch, to flawed father and husband. We will study portrayals of David from the Biblical era to the modern day, using diverse media, ranging from sacred texts to art, music, and contemporary literature. Rabbi Jonathan Blake and Rabbi Daniel Reiser Class Date: Tuesdays, November 8, 15, 29, December 6, February 28, March 7, 14, 28, April 4 and May 9 7:15pm 255 Mamaroneck Road, Scarsdale, NY Registration Deadline: Registration is not required for this course.
