Siddur Hebrew for Advanced Beginners with Eric Cohen

Designed for advanced beginners who can already recognize the Hebrew alphabet, this course will help participants deepen their understanding of liturgical Hebrew and engage more meaningfully with the siddur. Through familiar prayers from Shabbat morning services, we will explore common Hebrew roots, prefixes, suffixes, and key vocabulary while uncovering the meaning and structure of the siddur.

The fall series will run Monday evenings from 7:45 to 9:00 p.m. from October 5 to December 14. There will be no session on October 12.

This class series is offered in-person only. Limited spaces available. There is no charge but pre-registration is required. To register, click HERE.
