The Pardes Project was a groundbreaking educational venture of the Orthodox Union spearheaded by Rabbi Yaakov Haber. For years, the OU sent fully translated Torah source book on a particularly compelling, provocative, contemporary topic to registered groups around the world. Hundreds of groups met in North and South America, Israel, South Africa, Great Britain and Australia, in homes, shuls and on college campuses, to comb through and deliberate the sources.
The source books were especially designed to maximize the participation of the individual within a group setting and can be used equally by those with strong Torah backgrounds and those to whom this is the first foray into the world of Torah learning.
We've brought back a selection of booklets for your benefit. Please enjoy, and find the rest here
