Daily Daf Yomi: Mishna Yomis: The Mishna serves as the Backbone of all of Torah She’Baal Peh. This class seeks to complete the entire Shas in three years. This year we will study Seder Kodshim and the beginning of Seder Taharos at a rate of 2 Mishnayos a day. Halacha: This class will study sections of Jewish law in detail. Among topics we expect to cover this year are the laws of Shabbos. Nach Yomi - NEW!!: Join Rav Schwartz as he recaps the day’s sections of the 2 perek a day yearly Nach Yomi schedule. The class will assist the followers of the daily schedule with insights. Daily summaries of the day’s material can be found in the Nach Yomi section of the Rabbi’s study on the new Shul website (www.adathisraelshul.org) Night Seder: Contact Rabbi Refoel Rubin, Yeshivas Be’er Yitzchak (908-354-6057) Here is your opportunity to learn one on one in a Traditional Yeshiva setting. Come and join the fellows of Yeshivas Be’er Yitzchak for a traditional night Seder at AI. Bring your own Chavrusa or speak to Rabbi Rubin to set up a Chavrusa for you and come and see what the “Buzz” is all about. Sunday:The Kosher Kitchen: "What goes into the making of a Kosher Kitchen ?" This question is heard more and more often today. Whether you are a novice or a learned student of Torah Laws, the answer is becoming more and more complicated as new food products and methods of preparation are introduced into our modern kitchens. Thus, many people are stymied in their pursuit of the Kosher Kitchen . This can cost the average kitchen owner needless expense if food or utensils are rendered not kosher simply because knowledge that was available was not applied in the first place. Even those who have a basic knowledge are unsure of its applications. Join us on a guided tour of the laws that govern the Kitchen and delight in the comfort of the tastiest room in the Jewish home.
Women’s Tehillim Group: The power and hope of the Jewish people lies in its closeness to Hashem and its sincere, heartfelt prayers to Him. Prayer reminds us that Hashem is in control of every aspect of our existence, both when things go well for us and when we have difficulty. Join your fellow Jews in prayer on Sunday nights and help create an environment that will herald a reign of health, happiness, peace, and security for the Jewish people, wherever they may be. Mondays:Women’s Beit Midrash: Parashat Vayeira tells the triumphant yet tragic tale of Avraham Avinu’s tenth and final test, the Binding of Isaac (Akeidat Yitzchak). Until, at the last moment, while the sword was already in the air, an Angel of G-d intervened to stop the drama and pointed to a ram, to be substituted for Yitzchak (Bereshit 22:1-19). The merits of this episode have been referred to throughout Jewish history. The only question is why?? Come study Akeidat Yitzchak with a master teacher and see the story as you’ve never seen it before.
Few books have been written for both Scholars and lay people better than the Orchos Tzaddikim. Join Rav Schwartz in exploring one of our great thinker’s approach to the ethical life and its connection to our daily lives. Tuesdays:"SheAsani Kirtozono: An interactive exploration of the Divine Creative power within Women" Using texts from the Chumash and Siddur, we can become more clearly connected to the purpose for which we were created. Through this journey, we will be empowered to look deeper and become more connected to our own individual value and to the beauty inherent in each one of us. Wednesdays:Women’s Monthly Forum We all need time to learn but with all of the challenges of work and child raising, when are WE supposed to study? Join Rav Schwartz for a monthly, participant-driven forum to cover all you ever wanted to know on a whole host of subjects – from Shabbat-serving to Pesach preparing to child rearing and inspire and be inspired as we grow together. Thursday:Cholent Chaburah (men): Friday Night:Siddur Studies: Been reciting the words and don’t know what they mean or why they are there? Come study a selection of Siddur sections and spruce up your spiritual service to Hashem. Each week will focus on a different part of the Siddur. Shabbos:Sefer Shmuel:
Biblical Personalities, Places & Things (Fall)Perek People (Spring): They may have lived long ago but they speak to us today. Join our discussion about famous (and not so famous) characters of Tanach or the places of great interest therein and help develop a greater understanding of their place in Tanach and in our lives today. During the Spring months, the class turns to the Tanaim of Pirkei Avot and examines their lives in context of their teaching in order to help us understand their life’s teachings.
Study the Parsha in detail and depth. Share ideas and thoughts in this intimate group. A great addition to your Shabbos schedule.
Come spend a half hour in intense study of Meseches Avodah Zara. By joining us each Shabbat afternoon in the fall, you will understand and experience Gemara study as never before. Jewish Lifecycles: A common factor amongst all religions is the importance placed on life cycle events. This class explores Judaism, Halacha and Jewish culture through the lens of the human life-cycle. The goal of the class is to see Jewish religion beyond text, to see it as intimately tied to lives of Jews themselves. Through examination of life events like the birth of a baby, a bris and raising children we will continue to do what generations of Jews have done before us - giving life, sustaining our beliefs, celebrating who we are and reminding us that each person's life is precious. At each session of this popular series we will examine the etiology and contemporary application of many of today’s pressing Halachic dilemmas. Source sheets will be provided.
