The number 1 reason adult Jews say that keeps them from being more Jewishly active is that they simply don’t know enough.  That is certainly true when it comes to Israel. 

Israel’s history, culture and people have always been and will continue to be distinctly nuanced and complex. This course will present historical events and statistics pertaining to Israel and facilitate each learner’s critical analysis of a wide range of subject matter, perspectives, and experiences. Topics include the founding of the State of Israel, a timeline of Jewish history in the region, the various versions of Zionism, and the path to becoming an independent country.
