Talmud Classes - Tuesdays at 6:30 pm in the library
Add your voice to the centuries-old conversation. Explore Tractate Brachot in translation with Rabbi Selsberg. Beginners welcome. The Babylonian Talmud is challenging, compelling, frustrating, thought-provoking, confusing, wise, hilarious and always worthwhile. It is also the central text of Jewish life since the time of the Bible. Yet it is unknown to most Jews. Join the study, and add to our Tradition.

Learn to Chant Torah and Haftarah
Add your name to the ranks of the talented individuals in our community who know how to chant Torah or Haftara. If you are interested, please contact Cantor Eyal Bitton at eyal@bethjacobsynagogue.ca. While a musical ear is helpful, it is not required, so everyone is encouraged to learn this skill.
