Debunking the Myths.

The Rohr Jewish Learning Institute (JLI) will present Fascinating Facts: Exploring the Myths and Mysteries of Judaism; the six-session course will begin in West Hartford on November 7 and in Glastonbury on November 8.

"As the People of the Book, we strongly believe Jews should know the richness of their Jewish heritage," explains Rabbi Yosef Wolvovsky, Director of the Institute.  "That is what we hope to accomplish with this entertaining new educational offering.”

Spanning a wide range of intriguing subjects, Fascinating Facts includes sessions on Jewish myth and urban legend, biblical stories and events, Jewish foods, the Hebrew language, life cycle events, and mysteries of the occult.  [Click HERE for more details].  The course will address issues such as the Jewish view on Satan and the evil eye, whether angels have wings, and why pork is considered the quintessential non-kosher food.

"We've designed this course as a fun and insightful overview of Jewish heritage to promote a Jewish cultural literacy within the community," says the Rabbi.  "We aim to enlighten even the most seasoned trivia buffs with a treasure trove of 'Who knew?' Jewish factoids."

Fascinating Facts is designed to appeal to people at all levels of Jewish knowledge, including those without any prior experience or background in Jewish learning.  All JLI courses are open to the public, and attendees need not be affiliated with a particular synagogue, temple, or other house of worship.

Interested students may call (860) 659-2422 or visit www.myJLI.com for registration and other course-related information.
