This year in Navi (Prophets) we will be studying the book of Shmuel I.

Shmuel deals with the life of the Prophet Shmuel (Samuel - the greatest of all the prophets), and the rise of the Jewish Monarchy. We will learn about the first king of Israel, King Saul and then the second king, King David. Through our journey this year, we will not only be studying and translating text, we will be learning stories, ideas and exploring the foundations of the Jewish people and the land of Israel.
