New Biblical Hebrew Class Series

from Lorna Holmes

Hebrew class will be on hiatus until August.  Lorna will still periodically be sending a parsha handout for the parsha of the week, which you may find helpful if you are volunteering for an aliyah, or just want to keep up on your reading practice. Zoom classes will resume mid-August, with Chapter 17 of First Hebrew Primer.  If you would like to be on the mailing list for the handouts, send a request to Lorna.
