“Planning continues for this annual event inspired by the late Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz after he completed his translation and commentary of the Talmud in 2010,” said organizers of the event. “This global Jewish learning day will center on the theme ‘The Values We Hold Dear: A Roadmap for Inspired Jewish Living.’ The materials are provided by Limmud, which supports a diverse and cohesive Jewish community. Rabbis Micah Friedman and Zev Silber plan to lead the event. We hope that you will choose to attend.”
