Congregation Beth Hamedrosh – A Place of Learning

                        True to its name, CBH offers its members and the larger Jewish community a variety of opportunities for learning.    Classes are open to all, without fee and without regard to membership in the shul.  In addition to a full schedule of shiurim, the shul encourages and facilitates chavrusah learning both with our rebbeim and with peer chavrusahs.

                        Here is a sampling of current classes and other opportunities for learning:

·        Daf Yomi – a daily Talmud class which takes place each morning before Shacharis.  Taught by Rabbi Caplan.

·        19 Letters Class – a weekly shiur on this classic work by Rabbi Samson Rafael Hirsch regarding the response of Orthodoxy to the Enlightenment.   Taught by Rabbi Caplan.

·        Ramban Shiur – an advanced class on the writings of Nachmanides.  Taught by Rabbi Caplan

·        Jewish Prayer Group – a practical class for both beginners and advanced daveners to help us grow in on our prayer lives.  Taught by Rabbi Goldstein.

·        Tehillim Shiur – a class on the Book of Psalms.  Taught by Rabbi Gutman.
