Question
When there is a lesson in the synagogue, is it obligatory to attend, or is it permissible to take a walk for Shabbat pleasure?

It is a great mitzvah to attend the lesson. The poskim have written that it is strictly forbidden to schedule other matters, even matters of mitzvah, during the time of the lesson.
