The Crazy Talmudic Mind with R' Aaron Alexander
This study group will stimulate your mind, and might make you think our Rabbis were smoking something. More than anything else, it will illuminate deep labyrinths of holiness. Sometimes logical. Sometimes fantastical. Always intriguing...

30 minutes of learning will begin immediately following Kiddush. Every other week beginning January 7.

No experience necessary. No registration necessary. Just show up and learn.
