Learn
"The Jewish tradition of learning - is learning. Adam chose knowledge instead of immortality." - Elie Wiesel
At Beth Jacob Synagogue we believe in feeding the intellect and curiosity as much as feeding the spirit and the soul. Education is the well from which we draw our inspiration and illuminate our future and our past. Together, we explore the Jewish experience in all its facets: culture, heritage, arts, history, language, story, food, tradition, ritual and celebration. We learn about the wider Jewish community and in doing so, we learn about ourselves.
Use the menus on this site for additional information about youth education, adult programming, and opportunities to connect with Jewish culture.
