e-TiM: The Rise of Reform and the Rabbinic Response

This series takes place on Mondays at 8:30pm Eastern. 

In part two of this ongoing series we continue our examination of the early reformers. In the second generation of Reform, halakhic justifications are not central, while the dividing lines between the traditionalists and the Reformers become ever more clear. We will also focus on the Orthodox response to the German Reform conferences that established Reform as a movement.

New participants are most welcome and each class forms an independent unit.
