The Literary Genius of the Bible
This course is no longer offered.
We have looked to the Hebrew Bible, our Tana"kh, to find lessons on how to live, and role models to follow. Or we have argued with those stories. But usually we have not paid attention to their literary merits -- why are the stories fun? All are welcome to explore our ancient source material in a fresh way.
To register, contact B'nai Emunah at 415-664-7373 or office@bnaiemunahsf.org.
