The split between Judah and the rest of
Israel.
The various kings that ruled.
The reign of Hezekiah, his trouble with Sennacherib, and his water supply for
Jerusalem.

The Rise Of Rome In Israel And Churban Bayit Sheini
(Peula)

Objective: This is a period of time so super infused with Jewish history that it is hard to find a main focal point. Unfortunately the chanichim are not going to want to sit through a three hour lecture about the rise of Christianity, the beautification of the Bayt HaMikdash and other important issues. Instead, we will focus our energy elsewhere. The reason behind the destruction of the Bayt Hamikdash- sinat chinam

Shabbat Exile & Redemption
שבת גלות וגאולה(Peula)


Goals: The chanichim will understand that redemption is a product of the combined effort of both God and ourselves.The chanichim will understand that גלות isn't necessarily a dark, sad bad place, rather a situation when one is distanced from his origin, his real self, his natural state. For example, Am Yisrael's natural and ideal state is living as a nation in Eretz Yisrael. Am Yisrael's essential way of life is by the Torah. Not being connected to those two puts Am Yisrael in a state of גלות.  The chanichim will understand that Am Yisrael is one unit, an organic being, and inseparable.
