Haftarah Class - New Date & Time (moved from 10/10)
Led by Jeffrey Rosen

In order to accommodate additional participants, the classes  have moved from the second Monday of each month at four to the second TUESDAY of each month at 4:15. The class will study the Haftarah which is read on the closest Shabbat following the class. This year’s class will follow the general format of prior years’ classes. The class involves detailed discussion and textual analysis of each of the Haftarot described in English but with occasional reference to the Hebrew .

October 17, 2023 - HAFTARAH FOR MACHAR HODESH (the New Moon)-I- SAMUEL 20:18-42 , Etz Hayim p. 1215.- Who is Jonathan and what is his character? What is the relationship between David and Jonathan? What do we learn of King Saul and what is his relationship with his own son and heir? How does this narrative fit into the coming dynastic struggle between the House of David and the House of Saul? How is Jonathan conflicted and how is the conflict manifested? What is the importance of the new moon?
