An introduction to Jewish prayer and the prayer book, looking at the history, order, structure, and constant reworking of our liturgy.

Upcoming sessions:
Text
(December 5th): A look at the Jewish library: what are our formative texts – biblical, rabbinic and mystical? How do we use them today?

Tongue (December 12th): Hebrew can be an impediment to Jewish engagement for many of us. Reb Irwin gives a crash course in Hebrew structure and key vocabulary to help make Hebrew more of a window than a wall.
