Educational Offerings

Tuesday evenings, Rabbi Yuter offers a class on The Gospel According to the Jews: What We Can Learn from Christian Scripture. What can a Jew learn by studying the world of Christian Scripture? Lots! In this course, you will learn to appreciate the origins of Judaism. Students will read Matthew, Mark, Luke and John from the New Testament as four different Christianities. Each will reveal a different photo of Judaism during the period when the Mishnah was being composed. Analyses parallel developments in the Mishnah and New Testament. We will use the method of literary , historical and philosophical scholarship, with both Hebrew and Greek backgrounds

Rabbi Yuter also offers a class entitled Introduction to Judaism, a Study of All We Want to Know about Judaism But Never Got to Ask on Wednesdays — both at 12:15 PM and again at 7:15 PM. Major topics will include: Story of Judaism, World View, Way of Life and Community of Judaism, Judaism as a Coherent System, and Modern and Contemporary Judaism.

All of these classes are free and open to the public.
