Judaism is Our Story

The school for basic Jewish Studies, allows students while pursuing their degree, to be exposed to a large selection of courses in the Bible, Talmud, Rabbinic literature, Jewish philosophy, Israeli thought, Israeli history and Hebrew literature.   
In recent years, we have greatly varied our curriculum. We offer workshops, face-to-face courses, hybrid courses, and on-line courses, in Hebrew English and French. Our website includes a sample of student feedback in addition to information about our lecturers.
This is a unique opportunity to learn about Jewish identity, Jewish culture, and the Jewish religion from a variety of different perspectives: encountering Jewish texts and experiencing a dialogue between course participants or in the computerized forums. We are committed to giving all students at Bar-Ilan an opportunity to deepen the discourse of Judaism during their studies at the university.
