This week we will explore restrictions on transacting with idolaters around their festivals—including buying, selling, lending, or renting—to prevent benefiting their idolatrous worship, with differing views on whether prohibition applies only before or also during the festivals. We will also learn about the tragic death of Rabbi Chananya ben Tradyon.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit ⁠⁠https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-avodah-zara/

This week, we will explore the significance of time and dates associated with idolatrous festivals. Due to concerns about strengthening idol worship, business dealings with idolaters before and during their holidays are prohibited. We will also learn of the special relationship Antoninus had with Rebbi. The Gemara also teaches about Unkelous, the famous convert.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit ⁠https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-avodah-zara/

Once IshBoshet fell out of Avner's good graces, he is told he will lose the kingdom. Avner will quickly turn on him to throw his support to Dovid. But will this guarantee Dovid the empire?

This week we will begin Masechet Avoda Zara by discussing the future judgment of the nations of the world, where they attempt to justify themselves before God by claiming to have supported Torah study. Their claims are refuted, revealing that their motivations were self-serving, and the unique value of Torah and mitzvot—especially Shabbat—is emphasized. We will also explore the prohibition of engaging in commerce with idolaters before their festivals and introduce foundational principles for avoiding any support or association with idolatry.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-avodah-zara/

Now that Shaul is dead can Dovid take the throne? Will people support him or did Shaul turn too many people against him believing Dovd was a rebel? And if they won't accept Dovid, who will be the leader of this shattered nation? We will get to see how all the challenges unfold.For the original course page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/king-davids-diaries/

We will delve deeper into shevuat ha'pikadon (oath of collateral), analyzing cases where a person denies receiving a deposit or loan and then falsely swears, including the number of claims and oaths required for liability. The Gemara distinguishes between monetary and non-monetary oaths, examines the role of multiple claimants and defendants, and discusses the precise language needed to create an obligation. The final dapim shift focus to shevuat ha'eidut (oath of witnesses) again, especially in scenarios involving partial admissions, coercion, and complex witness dynamics, all contributing to the broader understanding of when and how oaths carry legal and sacrificial consequences.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-shevuot/

 We saw that Dovid was saved by not having to fight with the Plishtim against the Jewish People. Tonight we will learn a story where Hashem's “hand” is more hidden but is most definitely protecting Dovid from tragic mistakes-and reminds us that chessed doesn't always feel good in the moment.For the original course page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/king-davids-diaries/

This week we will continue discussing the laws of shevuat ha'edut (the oath regarding testimony), focusing on who is obligated, when one is liable, and which types of testimony are excluded—such as testimony by women, relatives, or invalid witnesses. The Gemara also explores shevuat ha'pikadon (an oath denying having received a deposit), including cases where the oath is made falsely and what conditions create liability for sacrifice.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-shevuot/

Now that Dovid is living with the Plishtim, Shaul is no longer willing to chase after him. But a major war is brewing from the Plishtim against the Jews. The last few prakim of Shmuel alef will “ping pong” the perspectives and situations of Dovid and Shaul and how the war will change both of their lives.For the original course page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/king-davids-diaries/

This week, we will learn the concept of a vain oath and what a person would be liable for. The 4th chapter deals with an oath made by someone who may have information that can help a litigant in court.

We will jump back into the lives of Dovid and Shaul. We will learn about their next encounter where again Shaul will be chasing to kill Dovid but Dovid will have the upper hand and again choose the “high road” to prove his loyalty to Shaul. But it will be a breaking point for Dovid of how long he can keep repeating this cycle and come out unscathed….For the original course page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/king-davids-diaries/

Join Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Chaim Brovender for a special Yom Yerushalayim shiur. From a personal perspective and based on current events, where does the Jewish People's relationship with Jerusalem stand?

This week, we will explore key halakhic discussions related to tumah (impurity) and the Temple. The Gemara delves into the laws of entry to the Azarah (Temple courtyard) while in a state of impurity, the distinctions between various kinds of tumah, and the obligations for korbanot (offerings) brought for transgressions, especially those involving uncertainty (safek). It also analyzes comparisons between impurity and other prohibitions, discusses when awareness of impurity is significant, and introduces foundational principles for determining liability in cases of doubt.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-shevuot/

This week the Gemara explores distinctions between intentional and unintentional oaths, oaths related to past versus future actions, and how liability is incurred depending on awareness and intent. It also delves into the Torah sources for these laws, linking them to broader concepts like atonement, sacrifices, and the precision of language in legal contexts.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-shevuot/

Shaul concerns and fears are now overtaking him and he can no longer hold them in. He is taking more of a stance with his servants of “if you're not with me, you're against me” which motivates Doeg to tell Shaul where he last saw Dovid. Tonight we will see the ramifications of that incident and how far Shaul is willing to go to kill Dovid.For the original course page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/king-davids-diaries/

Masechet Shvuot begins with an unusual feature: it doesn't open with a direct definition of “shevuot” (oaths), but instead with a statement that lists different legal categories that the tractate will cover, including tumah (impurity), bi'at mikdash (entering the Temple in a state of impurity), yediot hatumah (knowledge of impurity), and various types of oaths (shevuot). The Mishna explains that some of these cases involve two that are actually four—referring to the idea that the Torah mentions two, and the Rabbis derive an additional two.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-shevuot/

After Shaul tries to ambush Dovid outside his home and Dovid is able to escape, Dovid still has doubts if he is guilty of any crimes. He runs to Yonatan and together they came up with a plan. In tonight's shiur we will see the actualization of that plan and what Dovid will have to do when he learns how Shaul truly feels about him.For the original course page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://webyeshiva.org/course/king-davids-diaries/

This week we will focus on the laws of malkot (lashes), detailing when a person receives lashes, how many, and for which transgressions. It explains how lashes are administered, the physical requirements of the transgressor, and how this punishment serves as atonement—cleansing the sinner spiritually. The chapter ends with a powerful and uplifting aggadic passage where Rabbi Akiva and other sages see a fox emerging from the ruins of the Temple, and while the others weep, Rabbi Akiva laughs—expressing hope and faith that just as the prophecies of destruction were fulfilled, so too will the prophecies of redemption.For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-makkot/

In the second chapter, the Gemara explores distinctions between different types of murderers—intentional vs. unintentional—and elaborates on the legal process that determines who goes to a city of refuge (ir miklat).For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-makkot/

This week we will begin with discussions about King David's sin with Batsheva and the consequences of his actions, followed by reflections on repentance and divine justice. The later pages focus on the downfall of the wicked kings of Israel and the rebellion of Korach, culminating in a broader conversation about false prophets, rebellious cities, and how the Torah guides dealing with internal threats to the spiritual and moral fabric of the nation.Kol Hakavod for finishing Masechet Sanhedrin!For more info or to visit the main shiur page please visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://webyeshiva.org/course/daf-yomi-one-week-at-a-time-sanhedrin/

Tragic 20th Century Haggadot: In this class, I speak about 20th century rewritten haggadot that were responses to the time when they were written:The Hitler Haggadah, written in 1943 by an anonymous author during the Allied liberation of North Africa through Operation Torch.A Survivors' Haggadah, created in 1946 by Holocaust survivors in displaced persons camps near Munich, Germany.The Haggadah of Freedom, written by survivors and families of October 7, 2023

Tonight, our final in a series on the Maggid portion of the Haggadah, we will explore the notion how a Voice carries lifeforce to its listeners, and how the Voice is cut into expressions of sounds, letters and speech, dibbur, that transfer meanings to a person's inner being. These meanings trigger memories that activate feelings that prompt actions.All of this communication is to bring us to express our deepest truth, and Rebbe Nachman says most people don't believe in their prayers.  How does this tie into the famous advice of many teachers, "To teach Torah we believe in what we say."  So too the Maggid, and so too every  Jew in prayer.
