They have completed book after book of Prophets, as they look forward to beginning the Writings.<\/p>\n<p>This program, accessible to all women from all backgrounds, offers so much more than just a basic understanding of the text. Each short podcast lecture (typically 12-18 minutes long) is insightful, inspiring and cites commentaries, both modern and ancient, giving a multifaceted perspective into the richness and wisdom of the book.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonjewishweek.com\/73990\/women-immerse-themselves-in-prophets-and-psalms\/editorial-opinion\/\">Continue reading at Washington Jewish Week<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The daily study of a chapter of Nach (Nach is an acronym for Neviim and Ketuvim \u2014 the Prophets and Writings in the Hebrew Bible) is as beautiful a concept as it is daunting.
