Shlomo Teaching live - Haroset: A World History.

Hello Folks!

For those who want to have some quality learning time with me, learn about Passover halakah, and get some seriously interesting recipes you might be interested in the course I'm teaching a week from Tuesday (3/21/06)

This course follows the history of this Passover condiment from its rabbinic origins to the Seder table of today. What might seem like a simple story will turn into a journey where we will encounter many important texts from Tanach and Talmud through the work of Maimonides and Rashi determining the hidden significance of this observance. We will also discuss the Hillel sandwich from the Talmudic tradition to its modern incarnation and its relationship to Haroset. Recipes for haroset in various traditions will also be discussed and sampled.

Tuesdays, March 21 and 28 7:30-9 pm
Beth Emet The Free Synagogue 1224 Dempster Evanston, Illinois 60202
