Adult Education with Rabbi Jordi

Rabbi Jordi’s spring adult education series concludes with “What Do We Do About Communal Norms and Standards?” 

The class will meet on May 4 from 7 PM to 8:30 PM.

For this series, there is no specific book. Instead, Rabbi Jordi has collected articles and chapters from different books that he is making available online for those who want to take the class (or for anyone). The links to the reading material are below. 

Please let the rabbi know the week of the class if you will be attending. His email is rabbi.gendra@gmail.com. Each class is independent from the others, but the readings are essential to keep up with the discussion.
