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.

Book discussion on Goyhood, led by author Reuven Fenton Author Reuven Fenton will speak with the Beth David Book Discussion group about his novel Goyhood. Two estranged brothers from Georgia, one a yeshiva student in Brooklyn and the other leading an irreligious lifestyle, are brought together by an unsettling revelation about their identities. This Jewish comedy of errors is part coming-of-age story, part romp through the Southern U.S., and part serious exploration of identity, lies, and brotherly love.
