Hebrew Learning Community

The Hebrew Learning Community is a participant-led group of Tzedek Chicago members and friends who meet to explore a wide range of topics that are (sometime loosely!) connected to our developing understanding of Biblical Hebrew. The groups’ understanding ranges hugely and no prior knowledge of Hebrew is required. 

Our sessions have included discussions connected to the weekly Torah study and our struggles with the text; we have made visual art; treasure hunted for words in hand-lettered manuscripts; translated together; discovered how to best to use online learning tools; and discovered the joy of the chanting torah and the haftorah. Anything is possible!
