Welcome to Delve Deeper, a Jewish education initiative that brings dynamic teachers to lead in-depth, university level courses to a diverse group of adult learners in greater Rhode Island.



FALL 2024


Abraham Joshua Heschel is one of the most important Jewish thinkers of the last 100 years. We will examine how Heschel applied the writings of the Hebrew prophets to contemporary issues, as well as his insights into the Bible, prayer, Rabbinic thought, Hasidism, and the Holocaust.

Dr. Dror Bondi is an award-winning author, translator and editor who has dedicated the last 20 years to bringing Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel’s thoughts to Israel. Dr. Bondi has a doctorate in Jewish Thought from Bar-Ilan University. He lives with his family in Jerusalem, in Urban-Kibbutz Beit Yisrael, a community of religious and non-religious dedicated to social and spiritual activism.
