The book of Bamidbar (Numbers), will be the basis of study as students discover how the Torah instructs the Israelite community to be in relationship with God and each other. Starting after the giving of the commandments, the journey of our people to nationhood and autonomy is not linear but passes through many stages of development — progress and regress. In this course, we will explore the maturation of a society, the human relationship to authority, and the struggle with faith. Offered at the following levels:
