Parashat Vayikra - Shabbat Shalom! Rosh Chodesh and Parashat HaChodesh!
NEW: Friday Night "Ben Ish Chai" Chavurah
POSTPONED UNTIL NEXT SHABBAT
The Ben Ish Chai (בן איש חי) is a standard reference in some Sephardi homes (functioning as "a Sephardi Kitzur Shulchan Aruch") and is widely studied in Sephardi yeshivot. Due to the popularity of this book, the author, Chacham Yosef Hayim of Baghdad came to be known as "Ben Ish Chai", by which he is referred to by many today. The book is a collection of homilies he gave over two years discussing the weekly Torah portion. Each chapter begins with a mystical discussion, usually explaining how a Kabbalistic interpretation of a certain verse relates to a particular halakha, and then continuing to expound on that halakha with definitive rulings.
Rabbi Yonatan will lead the Chavurah in study of the Ben Ish Chai during dessert, every Friday night around 2.5 hours after the meal begins. This week, it is estimated we will begin around 10:00pm.
