SUMMARY:Shugar Family Introduction to Judaism Program
DESCRIPTION:Interested in a deeper understanding of the basics of Jewish life or thinking about converting to Judaism? Then Temple Beth El’s Introduction to Judaism class might be for you. This 18-session weekly course taught by our clergy with other experts in the community covers topics such as holidays\, customs\, life-cycle events\, values\, theology\, prayers and rituals\, Jewish texts\, history\, and Hebrew. \nIntroduction to Judaism is open to Jews and non-Jews alike. Often\, a Jewish partner\, friend\, or family member will choose to accompany the prospective convert to the classes. This class is also useful for non-Jews who do not intend to convert but are interested in learning more about Judaism. It is also helpful for people who were born and raised as Jews but feel as though they never received a solid Jewish education. All are welcome. \nPlease note: this is not a drop-in course. Registration is required for the full 18-session program so participants can enjoy the complete learning experience. \nRegister\nContact Aileen Spilka\, Clergy Senior Associate\, at ASpilka@tbeboca.org or call 561-391-8900 for more information.

SUMMARY:Shabbat Evening Services: The Benefit of Doubt with Rabbi Michael Marmur (Wisdom & Wonder Series)
DESCRIPTION:6:00 pm Shabbat Services\nFollowed by Optional Dinner and Learning with Rabbi Michael Marmur \nRabbi Michael Marmur\, our Wisdom & Wonder speaker\, will participate in our Shabbat Evening Service. We will also hear from The Giving Tree as they launch their annual Holiday Wish List Program. \nIn this week’s Torah portion we read of the Binding of Isaac\, often read as the classic example of religious certainty. In this session\, and in Rabbi Michael Marmur’s remarks during Friday night Shabbat services\, we will highlight doubt rather than certainty\, and suggest that doubt is to be embraced as a crucial tool rather than demonized or rejected. Where does doubt figure in Jewish tradition? Come to the session and find out! \nWisdom & Wonder invites you to engage with deep questions\, explore new ideas\, and learn from dynamic scholars. \nDinner Prices: \nMembers: $38 per person\nGuests of Members: $43 per person\nPrices increase by $5 per person as of Monday\, October 27.\nRegistration closes at 12:00 pm on Tuesday\, November 4. \nRegister\n\nLivestream YouTube Facebook \n
