SUMMARY:Adult Ed: Introduction to Talmud Study with Rabbi Emily Kapor-Mater
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Talmud Study with Rabbi Emily Kapor-Mater\nSundays\, beginning February 1 | 9:30-10:30am (No Classes Feb 15\, Mar 22\, Mar 29\, and Apr 5)\nRSVP Here\n\n\nThe Talmud stands at the center of Rabbinic Judaism. While often associated with law\, it is also a richly layered work containing narrative\, interpretation\, scientific speculation\, and moments of striking strangeness. Over the course of ten weeks\, this class will engage a curated selection of classic Talmudic passages. We will learn about the history and structure of the Talmud\, explore how Talmudic arguments work\, and meet the rabbis whose voices continue to resonate in Jewish tradition today. All material will be taught in English translation\, with the original Hebrew and Aramaic available for those who wish to engage them. \nRabbi Emily Kapor-Mater is the founding rabbi of the Portland Open Beit Midrash. Her rabbinic work centers on affirming and celebrating the lives and identities of the people who inhabit the margins of the Jewish community\, drawing on innovative yet deeply rooted approaches to Jewish law\, liturgy\, and ritual.

SUMMARY:Adult Ed: Beginning with "Why" with Rabbi April Villareal
DESCRIPTION:Adult Ed: Beginning with “Why” with Rabbi April Villareal\nMondays\, October 27-February 23 | 6:30-7:30pm\nRSVP Here\n\nThe “why” in any major project has gained renewed attention in recent years. The mitzvot/commandments\, one of Judaism’s central projects\, elicit profound Jewish wisdom on the question of “why?” and what it means to live with purpose. In this class\, we will explore this wisdom through study and conversation\, developing our own wisdom for the moment we are living in now.

SUMMARY:Adult Ed: Why the Golem? with Leora Troper
DESCRIPTION:Adult Ed: Why the Golem? with Leora Troper\nWednesdays\, beginning February 4 | 7:00-8:30pm (No classes Mar 25\, Apr 1\, Apr 8)\nRSVP Here\n\n\nMost people have heard of the golem of Prague\, but what about the golem of Chelm? Which one was the “real” golem? And why is there such a proliferation of modern golems\, from the Simpsons to Minecraft\, not to mention the growing number of golem novels for adults and picture books for kids. Was Superman a golem? What about AI? \nJoin this course to explore the golem story – it’s roots and how and why it has resonated so strongly in the modern imagination. With brief lecture\, chevruta (paired learning)\, whole group discussion\, and even a golem craft project during the last weeks\, we will explore a wide variety of sources.
