Apologies

October 11, 2012

Apologies to all of you much appreciated commenters! This site has been effectively on hold while I tend to another project!

The Hebrew Torah Reading Team at the Synagogue without Walls has taken all of my spare time for the past year or two. We started, shortly after the appearance of these blogs, reading the Torah in Hebrew in the annual cycle of reading through the Torah.

To read the Torah in Hebrew, we had to learn to read Hebrew, and to teach other people to read Hebrew.  We have been teaching and practicing for about 30 hours a week for the past year. Of course not everyone commits to that outrageous time expenditure!  But for all of us who have committed between one and thirty hours a week, it has been well worth the investment.

The benefits? We are all learning to read Scripture in the original language.  We are learning to use Scripture to interpret Scripture. We are developing close friendships with people who share our vision. We are taking part in the plan to restore Hebrew as a pure language.  We are taking part in the plan to restore Scripture to the hearts and minds of all who seek to know the One True Elevated One, the Creator of All.

If you have enjoyed these fragments of thoughts on learning Hebrew through the Eishet Chayil, you will enjoy – even more – the journey through the Hebrew Torah.

I encourage you to listen to our readings on the web page livestream.com/rootsoffaith and check out our google site https://sites.google.com/site/hebrewtorahreadingteam/home .

If you would like to learn to read Hebrew, and join us in reading through the Torah in its original language, fill out the form on the first page, and I will contact you for classes and reading schedules to work with your needs.
