HaLashon
Ever decide later, "maybe I shouldn't have said that?" Ellen Solomon leads this class on the Jewish attitude towards gossip. [Warning: If you'd rather talk about your friends than learn something Jewish, stay away!]
Iyov
The Book of Job is one of the most cryptic in the entire Bible. Rabbi Yitzchak Schwartz, Dean of Yeshiva Orchos Chaim, Jerusalem, provides insight into this complex work, discussing each verse with its implications and possible meanings.
Maharal
The Sayings of the Fathers, with the commentary of Rabbi Yehuda Loewe (the Maharal) a particularly deep Jewish philosopher of the 16th Century. This class is led by Rabbi Shaya Karlinsky, Dean of Darche Noam Institutions, Jerusalem.
Ramchal
Rabbi Moshe Chayim Luzzato (acronym: RaMCHaL) was an outstanding scholar and teacher of Jewish ethics in the 18th Century. His "Path of the Just (Mesilas Yesharim)" stands out both as an introduction to Jewish philosophy, and a guide for the person committed to self-improvement. Rabbi Yaakov Menken leads the discussion and analysis.
Halacha-Yomi
More and more people worldwide are making the study of
Jewish Law part of their day. The Halacha-Yomi list makes it easy,
with a section of the Code of Jewish Law fully translated into clear
English, accompanied by a commonly accepted modern commentary.
Rambam
Maimonides' famous Mishneh Torah, or review of the Torah, covers
the entire breadth of philosophical and legal topics that are the
foundation of traditional Judaism. Rabbi Yitzchok Etshalom teaches
sections of this work each week and invites discussion.
YomTov
Find out about the Jewish Holidays! This class discusses upcoming
holidays, their meaning and significance. The Jewish calendar is
filled with a rich variety of special days, and Rabbi Yehudah Prero
explains a great deal about each one.
Where the sky's the limit: a moderated list for discussion of traditional Jewish perspectives on practically any Jewish text or topic. On Torah-Forum-Digest, you will be able to interact with others in CyberSpace who share your interests - whether newcomers or experts!
These discussions have now given rise to our
"Issues in Jewish Thought"
pages - an archive of several of the more popular topics.
