Torah Study

Every Saturday
9:00 am

Join Temple Jeremiah for bagels and coffee while studying and discussing the weekly Torah portion. Become one of our Torah Study regulars! Drop-ins are welcome.

“Aaron died on Mt. Hor and the people mourned for 30 days. But when Miriam died and was buried in Kadesh, there was no text describing a mourning period for her. Why would the mourning process be different for a woman and man? Is it different today? Why?”
