In this course, Rabbi Schiff will teach and lead discussion on significant works of Jewish thought. Participants are encouraged to read one chapter of a book per week in order to get the most out of the class. This year, we will study Adam Kirsch's The People and the Books. A 2016 work, Kirsch provides a readable survey of 18 widely varied classic Jewish texts that every Jew should know. No prior knowledge is necessary - open to all.
