- [Avodah] Horeb doesn't discuss Taharas haMishpachah? June 12, 2024I couldn't see it there either. It's place would have to be in Section IV (chukim) chapter 69 - enobling of animal nature.

- [Avodah] context? June 5, 2024>From the Steinsaltz institute -would your bet medrash entertain this? One of the best examples is the famous Talmudic teaching that follows the argument between Abaye and Rava about the laws of lost objects, Rabbi Even Israel said. ?You have three pages of discussion going back and forth, but then my father adds a few […]
- [Avodah] material success June 5, 2024My comment on the most recent Tradition : https://traditiononline.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Tradition-Spring-2024-SUMMIT.pdf A very sad read.
