Adult Education at Temple Israel

At Temple Israel, we believe lifelong learning enhances every aspect of Jewish life.  The more we understand about our sacred texts, traditions, holy days and festivals, historical and contemporary scholarship, arts and literature, the better we will be able to make informed choices about our own practices.

We offer many opportunities for learning.

Torah

 

Enhance your Shabbat experience by studying the Parashah (Torah portion) of the week with Rabbi Debra Dressler and friends.  Join in an exploration of the text as we ask questions, discuss historical and contemporary interpretations, and debate its relevance for our lives. All are welcome!

The meeting time for Shabbat Torah Study varies throughout the year. Please check our calendar for the current schedule.

Adult Hebrew Classses

It’s never too late to learn Hebrew!  We offer Beginner and Intermediate Hebrew classes, with a focus on Hebrew used during prayer services and biblical Hebrew. To register your interest, please contact the Temple Israel office at office@templeisraellondon.ca.

LUNCH & LEARN - Lunch & Learn is now online. Eat your lunch and join Rabbi Dressler Tuesdays at 1:00 pm, exploring current events as well as classic Jewish topics.
