Continue Studying Torah!
Don’t let the end of the Shavuot festival stop you from continuing to study Torah. Make sure to set aside time to continue learning Torah.
What Torah Are You Studying?
Torah study should be a daily companion to each and every Jew. Identify Jewish-oriented classes being offered in nearby synagogues, Jewish centers or online.
Studying History
Given the longevity and geographic diversity of Jewish communities, when you study world history, you can often also study the history of Jews in that location during that time period.
