Rabbi Nissi Naparstek

THE ART OF DISAGREEING. Explore when direct communication on hard topics is healthy, and when it’s not, and see how to sidestep personal offense, maintain grace, and achieve growth while navigating conflict.

Rabbi Yitzi Steiner

THE MASADA MARTYRS: HALACHIC PERSPECTIVES ON HISTORY'S HARDEST CHOICES. How does a halachic mind interpret the harrowing events at Masada, where Jewish rebels chose death at their own hands over surrender? In this class, we delve into this question, exploring not only the tragic case at Masada but also similar ethical dilemmas faced by Jews during the Middle Ages when confronted with forced conversions under Christian rule. The complexities of these historic moments offer deep insights into the moral and spiritual struggles that have shaped Jewish resilience and identity.

Rabbi Sholom Brook

THE FRANKIST BLOOD LIBEL. In 1759, a clandestine faction of Shabetai Tzvi's followers in Poland committed a startling act: they collectively converted to Christianity while simultaneously accusing Jews of the age-old fabrication of using blood in matzah production. Despite the longstanding existence of the blood libel, this marked the first instance where the accusation was made by citing and distorting Talmudic and halachic sources. In this class, we examine the specific passages they employed and learn the response of the Jewish leadership during that era.

Rabbi Mordechai Grossbaum

YIDDISH. Discover the richness, beauty and importance of the Yiddish language and finally understand those ‘colorful, beautiful, or emotionally charge’ Yiddish expression your Bubby used to say.
