Unit 1 — The Books of Moses
Browse the full unitWe begin with a chronological study of the books of Moses, arranged in the order he most probably wrote them. Thus, our history studies begin with a study of Egyptian culture. We then follow the Israelites into the desert, studying Creation, the Cradle of Civilization, the Patriarchs, and the Mosaic Law in a “flashback” approach. The suggested Unit Celebration involves holding a Seder meal.
