Rambam Bekius
Truth in Halacha and What it Means to Paskin (Hakdamah to Iggros Moshe Part 3)
Show Notes

This afternoon (12/30/21), in our Rambam Bekius chavurah, we spent the majority of the time discussing questions that were raised on what we learned yesterday. We touched upon a number of fundamental issues, some of which might be considered "hot topics." At the very end we began a new but related topic: Mosaic semichah. That'll have to wait until next week (בג"ה).

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!
