The classic Jewish text, Pirkei Avot, is regularly studied in the weeks between Pesach and Shavuot. Part of the Mishnah, Pirkei Avot provides a wonderful insight into the observations and pithy teachings of some of the great sages of the Jewish tradition. In this class, Rabbi Schiff will teach Pirkei Avot through a contemporary lens. No prior knowledge is required.
Co-sponsored with Rodef Shalom Congregation.
