Workshop Evaluation
This course is derived from the teachings of Rivka Tiktiner, author of the first Yiddish book authored by a Jewish woman for consumption by Jewish women. “Meneket Rivkah: A Manual of Wisdom and Piety for Jewish Women,” appeared in 1609 in Prague, and contains beautiful lessons about the Mussar of family life.
