Hebrew Blessings and Prayers
This five-week course is for individuals of all experience levels. Throughout the course, we will learn the most recited Jewish prayers and blessings. The class will be conducted using transliteration, which means the Hebrew text will be presented alongside phonetic pronunciation for ease of learning. The essential prayers and blessings we will cover include the Hanukkah blessings, Shabbat blessings, Aliyot for Torah reading, and core prayers like the Shema and V’ahavta. By the end of this course, you will have a solid foundation to understand these key prayers and blessings, enabling you to actively participate in Jewish rituals and ceremonies with confidence.
