Upcoming Events
GETTING RID OF CHAMETZ SHIUR WITH RABBI KLAPPER Sundays, March 7, 14, 21, from 9:30 am - 10:30 am, at YI Sharon
Co-sponsored by The Center for Modern Torah Leadership
This three-session course will use the discussion on Pesachim 5b-6a of the
prohibitions against possessing chametz to introduce creative approaches to
reading Talmud, Rashi and Rambam systematically, while developing a nuanced
conceptual understanding of those prohibitions and of the halakhic
understanding of ownership. This series of shiurim is likely to significantly
affect the way even experienced lamdanim learn. Open to men and women with the
ability to follow Rabbinic Hebrew and Aramaic. Tuition is free.
MA’AYAN PRE-PESACH LEARNING: Sundays, March 14 & 21, at 8:00 PM.

Kaplowitz, Co-Director of the Jewish Learning Initiative on Campus at Brandeis
University, to prepare for your Seder in The Pesach Ushpizin.
Borrowing from the holiday of Sukkot, this two-part workshop will study
midrashic and halakhic sources to explore the personalities and biographies of
three “guests” or ushpizin whose presence at the Seder table
will enhance the Pesach experience: the Eliyahu ha-Navi, Yosef, and Serach bat
Asher. Open to men and women. Open to men and women.
