Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz Delivers Lesson Specially for RAVSAK High Schools

♦ by RAVSAK Staff

RAVSAK was an official partner of the Global Day of Jewish Learning, an event that united Jewish communities throughout the world, with hundreds of participating communities and thousands of people united in their pursuit of talmud Torah.

The event marked the completion of the Steinsaltz Talmud, an undertaking that has helped opened up the study of Jewish sacred text to thousands of Jews from all backgrounds. On Monday November 15th, Rabbi Steinsaltz delivered a shiur to RAVSAK high schools, on the subject of “Testing G-d.”

Over 100 students and teachers from 15 RAVSAK high schools throughout North America were in attendance on the webinar. After the lesson, participants messaged their questions to Rabbi Steinsaltz. As he taught, within a framework of respect, there are no questions that cannot be asked. ♦
