‘Outsmarting 
Antisemitism’

Join the Rohr Jewish Learning 
Institute for a four-week course 
on “Outsmarting Antisemitism”

. Maple Road, 
beginning the week of Oct. 31. 
 Attend live or via Zoom on 
Sundays at 11 a.m. or Tuesdays

Jews cannot let antisemitism 
define Judaism — but cannot 
ignore it either. As direct mem-
ory of the Holocaust fades, Jews 
around the world are wonder-
ing whether the patterns of past 
centuries are returning, in both 
the Old and New Worlds, where 
Jews experience more hate 
crimes than any other group.
Are Jews doomed to be stuck 
in this cycle forever? How can 
Jews escape this history of hate?
“Outsmarting Antisemitism” 
takes this dark subject on 
squarely, with a sense of 
unabashed optimism, profound 
faith and a distinctly Jewish 
approach. Through illuminating 
source texts and captivating case 
studies, this course considers the 
sources of this ancient scourge 
along with the appropriate strat-
egies for overcoming it. 
 “It’s time to find the con-
fidence to fight hate with 
hope and to stand tall against 
antisemitism with positivity, 
purpose and plenty of Jewish 
pride.
” said Rabbi Shneur 
Silberberg of Bais Chabad.

book. Scholarships are available.

“To save one life is to save 
the world entire.” 
— The Talmud

This High Holiday season, as we seek spiritual and physical renewal for 
ourselves and our loved ones, let us also remember those in Israel who 
nurture and renew life every day. Whether it’s treating civilians wounded 
in terror and rocket attacks or vaccinating them against Covid-19, no 
organization in Israel saves more lives than Magen David Adom. 

Magen David Adom is not government-funded. Its 27,000 volunteer EMTs 
and paramedics and 4,000 full-time professionals rely on support from 
people like you for the vehicles, supplies, and equipment they need to 
perform their lifesaving work. 

No gift will help Israel more this coming year. Support Magen David Adom 
by donating today at afmda.org/rosh or call 888.674.4871. Shanah tovah.
