You often hear about newcomers to the suburbs going “shul shopping” or “church shopping,” trying to find the right house of worship.
Jews who want to get a feel for eight Westchester rabbis now have a relatively easy way to do so!
The Rosenthal JCC in Pleasantville is beginning a 15-class “Introduction to Judaism” series this Tuesday (Jan. 13). It will cover all the Big Stuff— Torah, the sages, keeping kosher, holidays, lifecycle events, prayer, Kabbalah and more—and will be taught by the following rabbis:
- Rabbi Joshua Davidson of Temple Beth El
- Rabbi Steven Kane of Congregation Sons of Israel
- Rabbi Douglas Krantz of Congregation B’nai Yisrael
- Rabbi Seth Limmer of Congregation B’nai Yisrael
- Rabbi Geoffrey Mitelman of Temple Beth El

So come try ‘em out. The whole series costs only 36 bucks.

The world of religion, we don't have to tell you, is vast. The purpose of this blog is for Stern to note, flag and comment on some of the more interesting religious developments on the scene – weighty and quirky, somber and laughable, far away and just down the road.
