Rambam Bekius
Etiquette for Answering Questions and Beis Midrash Learning (Hilchos Talmud Torah 4:6-9)
Show Notes

This afternoon (12/20/21), in our Rambam Bekius chavurah, we finished Chapter 4 of Hilchos Talmud Torah. After reviewing the halachos about the etiquette for talmid asking questions of his rav, we learned the etiquette of a rav answering the questions he's asked. The final halacha covers assorted etiquette guidelines for learning in the Beis Midrash. Tomorrow (בג"ה) we begin Chapter 5!

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!
