Shavuot 2024 will begin on the evening of Tuesday, June 11, and ends on the evening of Thurseday, June 13. The holiday of Shavuot is the day on which we celebrate the great revelation of the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai, more than 3,300 years ago. The souls of all Jews, from all times, came together to hear the Ten Commandments from G‑d Himself. This year, on Wednesday afternoon, June 12, 2024, we will be reading the Ten Commandments followed by a Cheesecake and Ice Cream Party. If you are interested and can help out, please contact us!

All Night Learning

Stay up all night as we prepare to receive the Torah anew.

Shavuot is the holiday celebrating the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai seven weeks after the Jews left Egypt. It is a Jewish tradition to stay up the entire night before 'receiving the Torah' and spend the time studying some of its teachings. To learn more about this custom, click here.

Explore the guiding Jewish values that help inform choices on common medical questions. This course will equip students with the tools to chart a path through four areas of medical ethics: experimental treatments, extending life, pregnancy questions, and caring for a body. Gain an enriching perspective on how the Jewish ethical tradition helps us confidently navigate fateful decisions.

Lesson Details:
Lesson 1 - Experimental Treatments

When emerging treatments offer hope of recovery, when is the risk justified? Discover the Jewish ethics of risking your life in the hope of extending your long-term prospects.

Lesson 2 - Extending Life

How does Judaism balance the desire to preserve life with concerns of reducing suffering? See how Jewish values inform a dignified approach to end-of-life care and advance medical directives.

Lesson 3 - Pregnancy Questions

Explore questions of pregnancy through the lens of Jewish texts. Is a fetus a human life or a part of the mother’s body? When pregnancy endangers a woman’s life, may she, in good conscience, carry the pregnancy to term?

Lesson 4 - A Body’s Dignity

Might autopsy violate the dignity of the human body? Learn the Jewish view on the respect to which the deceased is entitled and how the sanctity of human life continues after death.
