SUMMARY:A Thorny Matter About Bread: NaKh & Nosh Reads Judges Chapter 8
DESCRIPTION:As soon as the chapter opens\, Gideon gets chastised. He along with 300 other Israelites subsequently travel from place to place in search of a little something to hold them over. Gideon also snatches away the possessions of some all-too-complicit camels. Come join Rabbi Rank’s table at Kiddush to make sense of how such a wild chapter made it into the TaNaKh (the Hebrew Bible). Together we’ll occupy ourselves with a little NaKh (the final two thirds of the TaNaKh) and a little nosh (which is Yiddish for senseless eating). \n

SUMMARY:Chai Mitzvah Study and Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for the next session of our Chai Mitzvah series! \nChai Mitzvah is a program to enhance Jewish engagement. Like a book group\, Chai Mitzvah network groups meet monthly for meaningful text-based discussions. What sets Chai Mitzvah apart from education programs is that each person in the group builds their ‘Jewish Bucket List’ by adopting or deepening a spiritual practice\, engaging in a social action project of their choosing\, and identifying something Jewish to learn about.  \nAfter meeting for nine months\, participants receive a certificate of completion and a tree is planted in Israel in their honour.  Our monthly group will convene on the last Monday of each month at 7:15pm\, unless otherwise indicated. \nFor questions about the group\, please contact our member Mitch McNeil (mitspooner@gmail.com)\, who facilitates the class. Our focus for February’s session is Menuchat HaNefesh (“Equanimity”).

SUMMARY:NaKh&Nosh
DESCRIPTION:Things are going terribly when one of God’s messengers finds Gideon. Gideon is in disbelief about the whole thing\, but he’s eventually persuaded and builds an altar. Also he and his family get snarky\, and he gets a new nickname. Come join Rabbi Rank’s table at Kiddush for a little NaKh (the final two thirds of the Hebrew Bible) and a little nosh (“senseless eating” in Yiddish) to discover why this funny chapter is important to Jewish history. \n

SUMMARY:NaKh and Nosh: Bible Beyond the Torah
DESCRIPTION:Although Jews are the people of the book\, there are many parts of the Jewish bible\, the TaNaKh\, we never read in services. The word TaNaKh is an acronym for the Jewish bible’s 3 categories of books: the Torah (the five books of Moses)\, Nevi’im (the Prophets)\, and Ketuvim (the Scriptures). Over the course of the Jewish year\, we read the full Torah\, but we never read the full books of NaKh (Nevi’im and Ketuvim).\nBut that has changed at Shaar Shalom!\nEach session\, we study one more chapter of NaKh: discovering why these words were so sacred to our ancestors\, and why so few Jews read them (outside of Halifax\, that is). Find Rabbi Rank’s table at kiddush for a little “NaKh and Nosh.”
