ADULT EDUCATION / LIFELONG LEARNING
Regardless of your level of Jewish knowledge, there are exciting learning opportunities at Beth Hillel Bnai Emunah. From Jewish cooking to text study, from learning about Jews in far flung lands to learning about the siddur (and so much more), Adult Education strives to bring a variety of programming to our congregation to satisfy the diverse learning interests of our members. Joining a class is a great way to feel connected to your shul community.

Classes with our Clergy
Rabbi Tucker’s Wednesday morning Bible Class: The Bible with James Kugel
Most Wednesdays from 10-11am beginning October 10
This course will be based on the book How to Read the Bible by Dr. James Kugel, a Harvard professor and practicing Jew who approaches Torah from a critical, modern perspective often bringing radical new readings to familiar stories. Each week we will read excerpts from parashat hashavua (the weekly Torah portion), supplementing them with Kugel’s commentary. All are welcome – no previous background required!
You can always call the synagogue office at 847.256.1213 with your questions or suggestions. We look forward to learning with you.
