Torah Study with Rabbi KuninThe Torah is our timeless treasure, with answers for the pivotal questions of the past, present and future. Sometimes it challenges us, and sometimes it disturbs us. Nonetheless there is always room for learning and debate. Each week we will examine ideas and issues from the weekly parasha and, through discussion and sometimes debate, discover meaningful connections between the wisdom our Torah and our modern lives. Please join this weekly informal Torah study session with Rabbi Kunin on a drop-in basis.

Netiv HaTeshuvaPrayers of Awe: "Who shall live and who shall die," Really?
In this Netiv session, concurrent with
the Musaf service in the sanctuary, we will be examining the traditional text
of Un'taneh Tokef, one of the most inaccessible parts of the High Holy
Day Mazhor. For most Conservative Jews, the idea of a God who metes out
life or death, reward or punishment, according to one's deeds and/or merit
feels doubtful, as we can all think of numerous counter-examples, wicked
individuals who are successful, righteous individuals who suffer. In this
session, we will consider alternative approaches to this key part of the
liturgy, including interpretations which do not depend on a belief in
pre-determination. Commentary from a variety of scholars will be presented,
including contemporary voices found in the Rabbi Lawrence Hoffman book, Prayers
of Awe: Who by fire, who by water, and medieval figures as well. The
discussion will be led by Sheryl Rattner. More details and registration info https://beth-david.org/hhd-5785/

Russian Netiv HaTeshuva Jonah - a Mysterious Book Session in Russian by Rabbi Ilana Baird Do you also think that Yom Kippur is one of the most important days for Jews? If so, we invite you to get together for a conversation about the prophet Jonah (the book that is read on every Yom Kippur). Many Jews believe that the honor of reading this book on Yom Kippur will bring them happiness throughout the year. But what is this book about? Join Rabbi Baird on Yom Kippur to uncover the mysteries and questions of the Book of Jonah. Perhaps this coming year we will see happier days because we studied this book together.
Иона - загадочная книга Вы тоже считаете, что Йом Кипур - один из самых важных дней в году для всех евреев? Если это так, то приглашаем вас собраться вместе и поговорить о пророке Ионе (эту книгу не случайно читают каждый Йом Кипур). Многие евреи считают, что честь прочтения этой книги в Йом Киппур принесет им счастье в течение всего года. О чем эта загадочная и странная книга? Давайте почитаем и обсудим эту Книгу с раби Иланой в Congragation Beth David в Субботу Суббот - в День Искупления - Йом Киппур! * Иона - что это за птица? * Как не летай, а плыть придется в заданном направлении? * Почему мы читаем эту книгу именно на Йом Кипур? * Почему она актуальна как никогда именно сейчас? Может и нам в следующем году немного повезет именно потому, что мы прочитаем эту Книгу вместе?

Netiv HaTeshuvaKabbalah as a tool toward spiritual transformation and teshuvahThe days leading to Yom Kippur give us a
special opportunity to cleanse our souls, mend the barriers between ourselves
and God, and elevate our spirits. In Kabbalah, the emphasis is on returning to
God, involving three key elements: recognition of wrongdoing, remorse for
actions taken, and resolve for future change. In this Netiv session, Joseph
Bendahan will present and discuss some basic but important concepts of Kabbalah
that will facilitate our embarking on a journey toward self-improvement. The
session will include a short meditation as one tool towards this
transformation.

Best practices for Ethnic Studies in California SchoolsEthnic studies, a required subject for high school graduation in California, is supposed to teach students the histories, customs, and cultures of various ethnic groups comprising American society, as well as each distinct group’s past and present struggles to overcome racism and marginalization in America. Celebrating each ethnic group as a positive contributor to American society, known as ‘constructive’ ethnic studies, is a good way to prepare future adults to respect the rights of all, to fight bigotry, and to strive for tolerance and social justice in our diverse world. Unfortunately, as soon as ethnic studies became a requirement, many school districts in California found their ethnic studies curriculum implementation teams taken over by bad actors seeking to indoctrinate California children with a radical political ideology known as ‘critical’ or ‘liberated’ ethnic studies. In tonight’s webinar, Ilana Cohen, director of community outreach for the Alliance for Constructive Ethnic Studies, will discuss the distinction between two different types of ethnic studies, how this crisis has affected school districts all over the state, including Los Gatos-Saratoga Union, why this ideology is dangerous, not just for Jews, but for our entire country, and what steps can be taken by those with or without children. Open to the community. This event is co-sponsored by Beth David Adult Education
and Beth David Israel Action.

Navigating the Sea of Sacred Jewish LiteratureJoin Rabbi Roller as we embark together on a voyage of discover through the vast and diverse world of Jewish sacred literature. We will examine the unique characteristics of each genre and explore their historical contexts.
Starting with the varieties of biblical literature as a foundation, we will see how rabbinic, medieval, and modern texts build upon, reinterpret, and expand this core. Through this journey, we'll gain insight into the rich tapestry of intertextuality that characterizes Jewish literature, witnessing how each era contributes to an ongoing, dynamic conversation within Jewish tradition.
