Streicker Center’s Yesod Course is featured in The Jerusalem Post on June 12, 2024
The Yesod course, presented by the Streicker Cultural Center at Temple Emanu-El, has offered a profound educational journey for its participants, attracting hundreds who seek to deepen their understanding of Jewish history and tradition. The students have had a chance to study Jewish history with master teachers just as a new and frightening chapter in Jewish history is playing out in real time. Featuring esteemed educators like Rabbi David Wolpe, Michael Berenbaum and Dr. Yehuda Kurtzer, the program started just days after October 7, adding a contemporary and urgent context to its teachings. This timing has made the program particularly relevant, with a focus on understanding the current crisis within the broader framework of Jewish history.
