Adult Jewish Education

Temple Beth-El has been an innovative and intellectual center for decades with many long standing groups, activities and classes continuing a tradition of learning and growth.


We offer the following ongoing spiritual connections

 

Parashat Hashavuah - Torah Study

Join Rabbi Helbraun and Cantor Kahan for teachings from the weekly Torah portion. On mornings when there is a B’nei Mitzvah, Tom Burnstine will be leading the class. No cost; no registration needed. Join us in person (on days when there is no B'nei Mitzvah) or on Zoom. Check our weekly Friday service link email for the link to join!


Adult B'nei Mitzvah Class with Rabbi Ari

New Cohort forming now! Email Rabbi Ari if interested.

A review of the main Shabbat prayers - how to fluently read them/chant them and major Hebrew vocabulary for meaning. Prepare to read a verse (or 2 or 3) from Torah.


Torah Study with Rabbi Helbraun

Mondays, October 24 through June 2023 7:00 to 8:30 pm on Zoom

Why is the Torah so important to us? More than the stories we read, it’s the interactions we have with those stories. For thousands of years we have learned, grown and struggled with our tradition – sometimes seeking to gain understanding, and sometimes to make sense of this sacred scroll. We invite you to join in the conversation.


Talmudic Treasure with Rabbi Weissberg

Tuesdays, August 10, 2022–June 28, 2023 on Zoom only

Lunch & Learn with Rabbi Ari Moffic

Wednesdays, 12:00–1:00 pm
Starts October 26 and meets weekly on Wednesdays except for the 1st of the month

Each week, we will explore a major Jewish concept building our own Jewish literacy. Each prompt will give us food for thought about our spiritual lives and how Judaism can help us navigate our daily paths.
