LEARNING AT OHEV
Saturday October 5, ~12:30PM (following kiddush) - Shabbat Shuvah Shiur with Rabbanit Sara Wolkenfeld titled “Intention in the Attention Economy: Kavanah on Rosh Hashanah” Intentionality is important all year long, but the classic Talmudic sources that teach about intention and mitzvot center on the mitzvah of hearing the shofar. We will learn about the roots and implications of the idea of kavanah (intentionality), as well as discuss how we might apply these lessons in the attention economy of 5785. More information is available here!
Saturday, October 26 at 4:55 PM - The Jewish Calendar Controversy of 922 CE (and 2024 CE?) Join Professor Ben Dreyfus for an informative and historical discussion as he shares how the Jewish calendar was calculated historically and its relevance today in 2024.
