Welcome to Beit Toratah

Since 2016, we are rewriting the Tanakh, the Hebrew Bible, by reversing the genders of all characters. Toratah portrays Divine inspiration expressing itself through matriarchal lineages in Biblical language. Thus, we discover matriarchs in complex leadership positions, who are in direct relationship with Tehovah Elohin, and meet patriarchs who nurture their daughters and are active in the domestic sphere.

Toratah envisions broader possibilities for lived experiences and encourages exceptional spiritual imagination. Toratah and Torato (traditional Torah) together function as two ends of a fuller Torah that we call "Torah Shlema." Between them, dynamic understandings of divinity can emerge, as well as new gender-expansive narratives. Join us for our weekly classes.
