Hebrew Literature Group: Thursday, November 20th
The Messianic Idea in Hebrew Writings: From the Bible to Kabbalah
In the upcoming, second, meeting of the year, the Hebrew Literature Group will move on from precursors of the Messianic idea in the Five Books of Moses – the subject of our first meeting – to the full blown arrival of the idea in the Book of Isaiah.
In the Hebrew Literature Group texts are read in Hebrew with English translation and discussion is in English. We meet on Zoom about once every other month.

Sisterhood Daytime Readers: Thursday, December 18th at 1:00 PM
Sisters of Fortune by Esther Chehebar
“Syrian Jewish culture gets the Jane Austen treatment, with sisters Nina, Fortune and Lucy—the rebel, the good girl and the baby of the family, respectively—all on the marriage market. What’s Mama Cohen to do?
“Chehebar’s witty debut dives deep into Brooklyn’s Syrian Jewish community.”
—People (A Best Book of the Month)
