Shiur Hachodesh for Women by Women
Our next shiur will be on Wed., May 17, at 7:30 P.M. on Zoom, with Dr. Rachel Rosenthal (Rosenberg). Her topic is Voices from Behind the Glass: Bat Kol and the
Will of God. Throughout Rabbinic literature, the mysterious Bat Kol-- usually assumed to be a heavenly voice-- makes its presence known. What exactly is this Bat Kol, and why does it appear? We will explore a number of traditions about the Bat Kol to better understand the Rabbinic perception of the boundaries, or lack thereof, between heaven and earth.

About Etz Chaim
- Etz Chaim is a vibrant congregation known for the passion and decorum of its prayer, the breadth and creativity of its programming, its devotion to Israel, and its warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Congregation Etz Chaim is, first and foremost, a makom tefillah, a shul where davening with fervor is complemented by an absolute insistence on proper decorum. Whatever the background, dress, or level of knowledge of worshippers, all feel welcome in a joint effort to create a heartfelt and harmonious tefillah. Yet we recognize that this attitude is a goal for which we must constantly strive, and whose achievements can never be taken for granted.
Rabbi Moshe Rosenberg
Rabbi Moshe Rosenberg has been Rav of Etz Chaim for more than two decades, before which he served as Associate Rabbi of the Riverdale Jewish Center. A musmach of Yeshiva University, Rabbi Rosenberg has also served as an officer of the Vaad HaRabbonim of Queens and the Rabbinic Alumni of Yeshiva University, as well as a member of the Executive Board of the Rabbinical Council of America.
