In One Hour

In One Hour is a unique educational initiative, with the teachings and writings of historian, biblical scholar and kabbalist, David Solomon, at its nucleus.

The project brings together David’s innovative and dynamic educational talks – many of which serve as basic introductions to a range of areas in Jewish Studies – with his more in-depth survey courses on Tanach and Jewish History, Jewish Philosophy and Kabbalah. Click here to read more.

Please enjoy listening to the In One Hour lecture library!
