Understanding Torah, Understanding Ourselves / Leah Rosenthal

When the Rabbis of the Talmud imagined the transformational event of receiving the Torah at Sinai they described the ultimate model of Torah study. What is it that happened there and what is it that should happen each time we engage in the study of the Torah? This class will examine different approaches to this question found in Talmudic texts and discuss some of the possible implications of these texts for Jewish education today.
