Tuesdays 8:00pm Starting April 24
While Jewish law defines actions, Jewish thought provides meaning, understanding, context, and a general approach to life. But just as the rabbinic sages debated the minutea of halakhah, they also disgareed on core matters of theology from the nature of God, the role of evil, and even the afterlife.

In this exciting series, Rabbi Yuter will discuss the dynamic and often unexpected range of Talmudic opinions on these and other theological issues.

This class is open to men and women of all backgrounds.
