Hebrew Word of the Week: בִּנְיָן (binyan)

In Hebrew, words are built from roots that reveal deeper layers of meaning. The word binyan means “building” or “structure,” a fitting place to begin.

The Binyan Certificate program invites learners into the richness of Hebrew language, Jewish text and interpretation, discovering how understanding is built one word at a time.

Binyan means "building." The new Binyan Certificate in Jewish Learning and Leadership is your invitation to build Hebrew literacy, deepen your engagement with Jewish texts and be part of a growing online learning community.
