Gemara Makot (For Beginners)
Join Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Chaim Brovender for an accessible introduction to Tractate Makkot, one of the Talmud’s most engaging and thought-provoking tractates. Designed for beginners, this series will develop the skills needed to study Gemara while exploring the tractate’s central discussions of justice, responsibility, testimony, and accountability. Through his use of the ‘Brobender method,’ students will gain confidence in Talmud study and a deeper appreciation for the richness of the Oral Torah.
