Congregation Etz Chayim

What the Talmud Said About Social Hierarchy. Students and teachers, employees and bosses, needy and wealthy: we will read and discuss a selection of Talmudic texts that explore social hierarchy, and we will consider how we relate to the social hierarchies in our own lives

Almost as much fun as putting it up! Everyone welcome, no hard hats required. All hands welcome.
