IT'S NOT TOO LATE!!!
The Absolute Beginner's Introduction To Talmud: What is it, why do we need it, what ethical and practical lessons does it teach?
Fridays,
From 10:30am-12.00 in the library
taught by Wendy Segal:
This class is designed to introduce Talmud to the adult with no previous familiarity with Talmud. No Hebrew reading is required. The Babylonian Talmud was finished about 1,500 years ago. What is it? Why do people still study it? Why was it the subject of book-burnings? We'll look at how and why the Talmud was written, and then we'll look at a piece of the section on civil law. What are your responsibilities if you borrow something and lose it? What should you do if you find someone's cat? What does your shoemaker owe you if he dyes your party shoes the wrong color? Whose fault is it if your neighbor's dog falls into your pool and drowns? Come and learn, read, and argue like the sages of old as we explore the sea of Talmud.
Please sign up in the office by replying to this email or calling 245-2324 so that we know how many copies of materials to make.
