A NEW LEARNING OPPORTUNITY

Every Wednesday evening Rabbi Pear offers a class on the deeper meaning behind the mitzvot. For the next several classes, the focus on this class will be agriculturally related commandments. So if you've ever wondered what are - and what is the meaning behind - the unique land based mitzvot connected to Israel, now is a great time to join this class.
