Pirkei Avot is a book also known as “Ethics of the Fathers” or “Chapters of the Fathers.” It is a collection of ethical teachings and maxims from ancient Jewish sages. Pirkei Hallel is a unique book that captures Jewish women’s wisdom across the ages. Written by sisters Rena Ariel (Hallel’s mother) and Tziporah Piltz (Hallel’s aunt.) It offers a shared journey for mothers and daughters to learn together in preparation for Bat Mitzva when a young Jewish girl begins her journey to womanhood.
While Pirkei Hallel was written with Bat Mitzva girls in mind, anyone who’d like to gain a deeper understanding of Jewish tradition, the matriarchs, and other notable Jewish women from the Bible will enjoy this book. It is designed so you and your daughter can study one chapter a month for a year.
