Tanach in a Day: Jews and Non-Jews


Welcome to the homepage of our Tanach in a Day: Jews and Non-Jews program, which was held on Sunday December 25, 2022, the seventh day of Chanukah!
We offered 10 30-minute sessions, and a special Lunch and Learn, on the theme of: Jews, Non-Jews, and the relationships between them in Tanach.
We broadcast the sessions on YouTube Live, on our channel; you can see recordings on Youtube.
We also posted audio recordings at YUTorah.org.
The source sheet packet is available for download here (Google Drive file).


This event is dedicated by Sarena and David Koschitzky
in memory of Riva Koschitzky z”l.
May her neshamah benefit from our community’s learning.


Lunch is dedicated by Nathan Kirsh
in honour of the Rosh Beit Midrash, Sganim and Avreichim,
for berachah and hatzlachah.
