Rosh Chodesh Study & Discussion

January 12, 2025 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm EST

In person and Zoom.

“The Genesis Finale”

Rosh Chodesh, “the head of the month,” is the phase of the lunar cycle when the first sliver of moon appears, a time for renewal. Talmudic and modern-day interpretations connect the holiday to women. As such, Rosh Chodesh has been marked as a time for women to gather, study and pray (click here for more information).

Please join us this season for an in-depth exploration of the ”Leah v’Rachel” or “Rachel v’Leah” debate. NOTE: In the Amidah, “Leah v’Rachel” appears in Gates of Prayer (c. 1994) but in the current Mishkan T’filah (c. 2007), it’s Rachel v. Leah. Why? Fern Stampleman, Elissa Macklin and Laurie Treuhaft lead discussion, we all participate and, if you join in person, we share a potluck brunch.
