The Torah Cycles Of Elul/Tishrei: Texts For The Journey With Orot

Ongoing Program September 14, 21 @ 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM

There is a cumulative cycle of readings which takes us through the month of Elul and on through Holy Tishrei, a journey from Isaiah’s songs of comfort to the special Psalm of the month back to Abraham, Hagar, Sarah and Isaac, to Hannah, to the wilderness with a Goat and then back again to the march through the desert. Each part of the journey can bring us back to our historical memory and to a deeper awareness of where we have been in the past year and where we hope to be going. We will be parsing and reflecting on this rich collection of works together.


Pathways Of Teshuvah | My Jewish Learning

September 14 @ 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM

In this 3-part class with My Jewish Learning, Jewish educator Abby Eisenberg explores diverse aspects and approaches to teshuvah. Translated literally as ‘returning’ and often understood as ‘repentence,’ teshuvah is a process of reflection, introspection, and change. In these weeks before Rosh Hashanah, we will learn various nuanced approaches to teshuvah, and consider ways to integrate these into our lives during these challenging times and beyond
