There are four Torah readings during Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. We will take four 90-minute sessions and look at each of the Torah readings. We will look at the readings through the four ways of studying Torah. P'shat – Literal, simple, plain, intended meaning Remez – Alluded meaning, “reading between the lines” D’rash – drawn-out meaning (Midrash – “concept”) Sod – Hidden meaning This will be a participatory class where we use the combined knowledge of the group to increase the knowledge of each of us. Please come prepared to delve into the text and share your thoughts. Fluency in Hebrew is not required. Led by David Dropkin.
