The Lamm Jewish Library of Australia together with Elsa Hellinger have the pleasure of inviting you to the launch of the 114th title to

When war broke out in Slovakia, Elsa and
her sister fled to Budapest, where they survived on false papers. Hungry
and terrified, Elsa escaped capture and death many times, risking her
life to save her youngest brother — just in time. Today, Makor
Publishing is the largest publisher of Holocaust memoir in English in
the world.

or call 9853 9243.
Talmud is the connection between the Bible and the way we live our lives on a daily basis. Rather than only focussing on religious practices, it embodies a range of civil laws and a standard of ethical behaviour that define the essence of being Jewish.
Talmud study involves an interchange of ideas that are subject to rigorous analysis through a range of systematic processes. The language of Talmud, Aramaic, and the background knowledge needed to undertake study of the Talmud serve as a barrier to many, who otherwise possess the interest and intellect required to successfully undertake this study.
We will be studying the tractate Bava Metzia that deals with commercial law and underscores the moral and practical code that governs financial disputes. The Talmud will be studied in English and presented in an interactive manner that attempts to reproduce the thrust and parry of Talmudic thought.
It will be taught by Robert Berkowitz, a surgeon and has been arranged by Dean Ellinson, a lawyer and Kew Shule old boy, who both have a mutual passion for Talmud and wish to share this with their friends.
