Oct. 2018-June 2019 | 1st Sunday of Each Month | 9:30-11:00 AM

This series explores mitzvot with the goal of uncovering practical &

spiritual meaning for women. Each session will focus on one mitzvah

in depth & will be taught by a different strong & learned female Or-

thodox leader in Los Angeles. We will trace the halachic history of

the mitzvah & arrive at our practice today. See back table flyer.

Inspired by Rav Rahel Berkovits' curriculum at Machon Pardes.

UPCOMING

Oct. 2018-June 2019 | 2nd Tuesday of Each Month | 8:00 PM

At this BDJ Babies monthly learning chaburah, we will address hot

topics relevant for us as Orthodox women balancing it all —

young kids, careers, our Judaism, and more. Wine, snacks &

nonalcoholic beverages provided.

RSVP required monthly to talya.y.stein@gmail.com.

Begins Oct. 14 | Sundays | 8:30-9:15 PM | Gill Residence

Using the Sefer HaChinuch, we’ll work through one mitzvah at a

time, as we study them in their original Biblical context, uncover

various meanings & reasons that have been ascribed to them, &

trace their development into normative Halachic practice. Please

bring your own copy of Sefer HaChinuch (“The Book of Instruc-

tion"). Register : www.bnaidavid.com/event/iengage-course.html

Begins Nov. 19 | Mondays | 7:30-9:00 PM | Beit Midrash

This year we crack open the opening chapter of Bava Metzia, which

explores the legal, psychological & spiritual dimensions of dispute-

resolution. We open the familiar “Two are holding a garment, each

one claiming, ‘I found it’…” & we delve deeply from there.

Participants use their own choice of Gemara text (traditional,

Steinsaltz, Artscroll, etc.). Prior Gemara experience is beneficial.

Good Hebrew reading is important.
