Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 1 minuteSynopsis: This evening (6/17/26), in our last Wednesday night Tehilim shiur of the season, we took another pass at our perek. After reviewing the text, the questions and problems, and our approaches from last time. We then learned through the Meiri's first approach and the Radak's commentary, providing us with two interpretations of the perek. We developed them a bit and attempted to understand this perek's relationship with the previous one. Did we succeed? Somewhat. While we now have a working understanding - well, TWO working understandings - of the perek, and each pasuk, I don't think anyone felt like we really cracked it. There wasn't the satisfying, "Aha!" that we often feel at the end of our learning. Oh well. That just means we get to come back for another attempt in the future, God willing! In my opinion, this was a great year of Tehilim-learning! I enjoyed spending nearly the entire year within the same set of perakim. I'm excited to revisit this in an attempt to grasp the big picture, now that we have nearly all the pieces.-----מקורות:תהלים צגמאירירד"קבראשית א:א-טתרגום אונקלוס - שמות טו:אירמיהו טז:יד-טותרגום רס"ג - הערות הרב קאפח-----The Torah Content for this month is currently without a sponsor.

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 1 minuteSynopsis: This evening (6/10/26), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began the final perek in our "Kabbalas Shabbos" series: the short and thematically-difficult-to-pin-down Psalm 93! Translation didn't take long, so we were able to pitch several theories. I did my best to share my own, but knew going in that more work was necessarily. As Hashem's will would have it, this did NOT end up being our last shiur of the year. We'll give it another go next week (בג"ה).-----מקורות:תהלים צגArtscrollNeima NovetskyRobert Alterמצודת דודאבן עזרא - פירוש שנירש"ירד"ק - תהלים צבאדון עולם-----The Torah content for this month has been sponsored by Meir Areman, l'zeicher nishmas Zelda bas Ziesel, his grandmother, whose yahrzeit is on the 21st of Sivan.-----If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider supporting my work via Patreon, Venmo, Zelle, or PayPal — links below.

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 5 minutesSynopsis: This evening (6/3/26), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we completed our learning of the Radak's commentary on our perek. After reviewing what we covered last time - the first six pesukim - we delved into the critical seventh pasuk which opened up his whole approach. We then finished learning [the critical parts of] his commentary, stepped back, and compared it with our own analysis, emphasizing the thematic and practical differences. I had to do everything in my power to resist bringing in ideas from the Rambam on Iyov, which would be appropriate but would necessarily fail to do them justice. All in all, I'm super happy with how our learning of this perek went. As I mention at the end of the shiur, this is perhaps the BEST introductory perek to Tehilim - the contents, the method, and the benefits. I can't wait until the next time I learn it!-----מקורות:תהלים צברד"קרמב"ם פירוש המשניות - ברכות ט:הרמב"ם - מורה הנבוכים ג:כגאיוב לג-----The Torah content for this month has been sponsored by Meir Areman, l'zeicher nishmas Zelda bas Ziesel, his grandmother, whose yahrzeit is on the 21st of Sivan.-----If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider supporting my work via Patreon, Venmo, Zelle, or PayPal — links below.

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 1 minuteSynopsis: This evening (5/27/26), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began by reviewing the text and our questions. We then spent the rest of shiur learning the Radak's commentary on the first six pesukim, with forays into the Meiri, Rambam, and R' Avraham ben ha'Rambam. I COULD have rushed in order to finish the perek today, but there were so many delicious ideas in the Radak's commentary that I wanted to savor. Our goal next time will be to learn through his commentary on the second half, and then arrive at a unified understanding.-----מקורות:תהלים צברד"קמאירירד"ק - בראשית ב:גנוסח אשכנז - ברכת יוצר של שבתרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תשובה י:גרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות יסודי התורה הקדמה; ד:יא-יגר' אברהם בן הרמב"ם - המספיק לעובדי השם-----The Torah content for this month has been sponsored by Meir Areman, l'zeicher nishmas Zelda bas Ziesel, his grandmother, whose yahrzeit is on the 21st of Sivan.-----If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider supporting my work via Patreon, Venmo, Zelle, or PayPal — links below.

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 9 minutesSynopsis: This evening (5/13/26), in our Wednesday night Tehilim shiur, we began our analysis of the Shir shel Yom of Shabbos. I gave shiur on this a long time ago (November 2020), but since we've been learning through all the "Kabbalas Shabbos" perakim, and this is the centerpiece, we had to take it up once again! Tonight, we translated the perek, raised a ton of questions, and came up with our own approaches. I shared my own approach, inspired by advice from my rebbi, Rabbi Moskowitz zt"l, and by a passage in the Kuzari. Next time (the week after Shavuos, בג"ה), we'll take up one of the meforshim.-----מקורות:תהלים צבמצודת ציוןתרגום כתוביםרבינו יונה - אבות ב:המצודת דוד - תהלים צ:ארמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תשובה ח:בר' יהודה הלוי - כוזרי ג:יא-----The Torah content for the month of Iyyar is sponsored by Naomi Schwartz Rothschild in memory of her mother, Breindel Bracha bas Mordechai z"l, whose yahrzeit falls on the 8th of Iyyar.
