Midrash with Rabbi Asher Dordek
This is an excellent time to join Rabbi Asher Dordek Wednesdays at 8pm in the Library, as the Midrash class has recently started a new book:
Midrash Otiyot D'Rabbi Akiva
All men and women in the community are invited to explore the Aleph Bet in this well-known sefer in pursuit of greater understanding of the Creator of the universe.
Rabbi Asher Dordek delivers weekly thought-provoking shiurim in Midrash at Congregation Ezras Israel and is the weekly Torah reader at the Young Israel of West Rogers Park. Rabbi Dordek is an advocate for Jewish literacy and education. He is always available and excited to teach Bar Mitzvah lessons as well as Torah tutoring for all ages. Professionally, he is the E-commerce manager at Namaste Laboratories. Rabbi Dordek received his Semicha from Yeshiva University's Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary and earned his M.A. in Rabbinic literature from the Bernard Revel Graduate School for Jewish Studies. Asher lives in Chicago with his wife Brooke and their two children, Menucha and Ezra.
