Rabbi Sacks believed that the primary institution of education in the life of a Jewish child is the family. He wrote that:
“participating in meaningful conversation about Torah with our children and the next generation is a major part of what it is to be a Jew. There is nothing more beautiful or life affirming than learning Torah with your children. Give them the space not only to be your students, but also to be your teachers, and they will grow tall. That’s how we can truly secure the Jewish future.”
In partnership with The Rabbi Sacks Legacy, we invite you to an engaging parent-child seminar on the weekly parsha and other special courses inspired by the writings of Rabbi Jonathan Sacks. Parents and their middle and high school children will explore major themes, defining figures, and enduring questions from the weekly parsha and beyond. Led by a scholar specializing in Rabbi Sacks’ thought, these weekly online sessions will guide participants through chapters of Koren’s newly publishedCovenant & Conversation Family Edition.*
Each course will cover one of the five books of the Torah
