Study Pirke Avot, Ethics of our Ancestors, through a lens of social justice and see why Rabbi Joseph Telushkin says that this work, Pirke Avot: A Social Justice Commentary, by Rabbi Dr. Shmuly Yanklowitz, insures that “Pirke Avot continues to be Judaism’s preeminent text on how to be a good person.” We'll read the text in Hebrew and English and discuss together.
