Beresheet

Two studies for the beginning of a new Torah cycle

Bereshit means in the beginning, and it is the first reading of the year. Choose where to enter: through the week's self-guided study, or through Michael Berg's class on the question the Ramban asks in the very first sentence of the Torah: what, exactly, was created?
