"\;When do we ask God to intervene in nature? - and when do we NOT ask God to intervene in nature?: Some reflections from the third perek of Masechet Taanit"\;
Taught by Jonathan Lopatin
Seder Moed Project: Ta'anit
Every Tuesday\, the Hadar Beit Midrash features a guided class on a section of Seder Moed with hevruta learning (in partners) and discussion. \; In a community-wide learning project this year\, we will be learning Seder Moed in an order that allows us to prepare for each holiday as it approaches. \; Come with your own hevruta (learning partner)\, or let us match you with a hevruta. \; Join Yeshivat Hadar students in the Beit Midrash\, and Yeshivat Hadar faculty will be available to answer questions as you study. \; We also encourage those who sign up to learn a section of Seder Moed independently to come and learn at the Beit Midrash.
Tuesday\, July 28
7:30-9:00 p.m. at Yeshivat Hadar (at West End Synagogue\, 190 Amsterdam Ave. at 69th St.)
$5 per class\, $35 for the series (Tuesday evenings through August 4)
