About Talmud Israeli

Strengthening Jewish Identity One Daf at a Time

Background

1TalmudIsraeliTransparentLOGO.png

There is no better source of Jewish wisdom, halakha, aggadah, thought and midrash than the thousand-year-old Talmud. Studying Talmud brings us closer to our roots, closer to the past, unites us with Jewish people around the world, and most importantly, enables us to meaningfully connect with our children. Talmud Israeli bridges age groups and invites learners of all ages to participate in the worldwide Daf Yomi learning experience, while also focusing on modern Israel and Jewish history.

​

The program originated in Israel over a decade ago with the simple idea to strengthen Jewish identity by bringing the wisdom of our sages to learners around the world. 

In Israel

Talmud Israeli is used in more than 200 schools and 100 communities across Israel. The weekly publication in Hebrew includes the daf for each day of the week, and Israeli and Zionist ideas and values ​​– important characters, events and places that are components of the Israeli curriculum. It serves as enrichment for Jewish studies and as a means to connect to the Jewish community in Israel, and outside of the country.
 

While schools in Israel focus on modern Jewish history and Zionism, Talmud Israeli offers an integrated curriculum that serves as a point of introduction for more complex ideas. Talmud Israeli offers Israeli families an easy way to learn together in order to enhance intergenerational discussion and communication.
