More than 1200 years ago, the Masoretes, a group of Torah scribes and scholars, created two systems to aid in the interpretation and the oral presentation of Torah: the vowels (nikudot) and a system of cantillation (ta’amei mikra). We will learn how trope/cantillation helps to interpret the text and how to use the trope to bring Torah to life. In just a few short sessions with Cantor Randall Schloss, we will all learn how to chant Torah!

For people in bereavement, a monthly gathering to share and learn with one another.
Thu, Nov 07, 2024 - 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Description: Justice and redemption. Good vs. evil. Heroism and cowardice. The courage to boldly share one's vision with a dark and disillusioned world. These aren't just headlines from the 2024 election cycle; they are the well-worn teachings of our biblical prophets, passed down through the generations. Join Rabbi Jaclyn Cohen for this multi-session class exploring the wisdom of the prophets through a modern lens: what can Amos, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Micah and their peers teach us today? How can their stories guide us toward lives rooted in equality, purpose, and the pursuit of a more just society? No prior experience studying TaNaKh (Torah, Prophets, Writings) necessary. Open to adults of all ages. Participants will receive a copy of "The Prophets" by Abraham Joshua Heschel.
