On Sukkot, Purim, Pesaḥ, Shavuot and Tisha b’Av, we read special megillot connected to the themes of the holiday.
In this new monthly Community Beit Midrash, we’ll dive into these megillot with the help of midrashim in preparation for their corresponding holidays. Whether you are new to these megillot or you want a chance to dig deeper through midrash, everyone is welcome regardless of background.
The Upper 16th St. Community Beit Midrash is powered by Hadar, TI, and Segulah.
