Adults

Learning never stops at Beth Tzedec. Today’s adults have a thirst for learning, for connecting with the community and being part of it.  Beth Tzedec’s programs are rich in substance. Thanks to the informed and engaging efforts of our Clergy, guest lecturers and academics from around the world, film critics, book reviewers and our own members, the thirst can be quenched. Experience the excitement of gaining a new understanding of an old text and share insights from artists and authors. From Scholars’ weekends to evening presentations, lose yourself in enlightening lectures and discussion. Come and learn. It’s all here.


The Meaning, Structure and Choreography of Synagogue Services with Lorne Hanick

Dec 12 2022, 7:45PM to 8:45PM in the Orenstein Mezzanine Hall.
NOTE: This event has already occurred.

This course, not only for beginners, will analyze the meaning, structure and choreography of the weekday, Shabbat and festival services. Practically, we will look at the exercise routine of prayer in Jewish tradition: what to expect at each type of service, what to bring on which days, what to wear, and the details of when to stand, bow and other physical gestures. When to leave, when not to leave, and what to do when receiving various types of honours.

No knowledge of Hebrew is required and it is not necessary to purchase any prayerbooks. We will use the Beth Tzedec weekday and Shabbat books.

No charge but pre-registration is required. To register, click here>>
