Rambam: On Women Learning Torah - Part 2 (Hilchos Talmud Torah 3:13)

This afternoon (10/21/21) in our Rambam Bekius chavurah we continued in our attempt to understand the Rambam's shitah on teaching Torah to women. I say "attempt" because the tasked proved to be quite difficult. I can't say we really arrived at a firm understanding. Unless you REALLY want to be thorough, I might even recommend skipping this one. The only real big move we had was our realization that the Rambam's definition of Torah she'baal Peh includes KNOWLEDGE of the drashos - just not UNDERSTANDING of the inner workings of the drashos. There, now there's no need to listen to this shiur!

To repeat what I said last time: if you're interested in Rabbi Chait's three-part shiur on women learning Torah, email me and I'll send it to you.

Bekius Disclaimer:
Note that this is a bekius chavurah - as opposed to an iyun shiur. Each session consists of us reading through the Rambam's writings together without much preparation on my part, and without going into depth by consulting commentaries or primary sources. For all these reasons, there are bound to be inaccuracies, errors, and other types of shortcomings which would not be acceptable in a prepared shiur, but are quite typical of a bekius chavurah. Please bear this in mind, and know what you're signing up for when you listen!
