Expanding Horizons: Law(lessness) and (Dis)order (Part 4)
In this week's class, we will continue dispelling the myth that the Rama’s Halachic stances are “more stringent” than those of Maran by gathering dozens of examples where the former deviates from Talmudic Law while the latter upholds it, with a special focus on the permissibility of Rabbanim receiving payment for their services.
This class is part of our newest series “Expanding Horizons: Refreshing Perspectives From Giants of Jewish Thought” at the Shiviti Bet Midrash UK!
Seudah Shelishit 4:45pm Bread and spreads will be provided for Seudah Shelishit!
Shabbat Ends: 5:58pm
