Torah Study
Saturdays at 9:15 am - Conference Room A

Torah study at Temple Sinai takes an unusual approach: we review a verse as slowly or as fast as we choose, then go on to the next. We read from different English translations and consult a variety of commentaries. There is plenty of room for comments and questions from participants. Our group truly enjoys our weekly meetings and appreciates the different approaches of our rabbi and cantor, who alternate leading the study sessions. We welcome you to our Torah study, whether you wish to participate in lively discussions, read the current passage aloud, or simply listen. 
Many different Torahs are available, coffee is plentiful, and we finish in time for the morning Shabbat service, which begins at 10:30. 

For more information, email Cantor Braun
