FROM THE BEGINNING: THE STORIES OF THE BOOK OF GENESIS
This month we begin again our annual cycle of Torah readings. We will take a closer look at both some of the best-known and some of the lesser-known stories from the Book of Genesis, beginning with creation and moving to our Patriarchs and Matriarchs. How and why was the world created? Why Noah? What happened at Babel? Who were Abraham and Sarah? We will focus on the Torah text as well as midrash and commentaries.
