Sunday, August 16th 10:00 AM — Breakfast 10:30–11:30 AM — Lecture The Shiur will also be broadcast on Zoom; for Zoom information, please email:[email protected] Rav Avraham Yitzchak Ha-Cohen Kook Revisited On His Yahrzeit The Light, Fire, and Revolutionary Vision of Rav Kook Rav Avraham Yitzchak Ha-Cohen Kook was a spiritual giant whose vision has influenced the Jewish people. Deeply rooted in the mystical traditions of Chassidut—including the worlds of Chabad and Reb Tzadok along with the struggle to become a Gadol in Torah learning in the litvish model of his yeshiva —Rav Kook developed an expansive and daring worldview shaped by the profound upheavals taking place around him. His extraordinary empathy for the many Jewish and non Jewish movements emerging in his generation allowed him to see beyond division and conflict. He absorbed the tensions, aspirations, and anxieties of his age and transformed them into a revolutionary spiritual vision. Rav Kook emerged as a poet, mystic, philosopher, revolutionary, and deeply sensitive soul—a thinker whose inner struggles and spiritual passions continue to challenge and inspire us today. Join us as we revisit the life, thought, and enduring spiritual legacy of Rav Kook on the occasion of his Yahrtzeit.   The Shiur will also be broadcast on Zoom; for Zoom information, please email:[email protected]

Sunday – Thursday Online Daf Yomi

The nightly daf yomi class will be online only. Please email [email protected] for login details. The Schedule  9:20 pm - 9:20 pm Class Begins  10:00 pm - 10:00 pm Class Ends Daf Yomi (Hebrew: דף יומי‎, Daf Yomi, “page of the day” or “daily folio”) is a daily regimen of learning the Oral Torah and its commentaries (also known as the Gemara), in which each of the 2,711 pages of the Babylonian Talmud are covered in sequence. Under this regimen, the entire Talmud is completed, one day at a time, in a cycle of seven and a half years. Tens of thousands of Jews worldwide study in the Daf Yomi program and over 300,000 participate in the Siyum HaShas, an event celebrating the culmination of the cycle of learning. The Daf Yomi program has been credited with making Talmud study accessible to Jews who are not Torah scholars, contributing to Jewish continuity after the Holocaust, and having a unifying factor among Jews.

Sunday – Thursday 10:00 PM Maariv

The Schedule 10:00 pm - 10:00 pm Start 10:15 pm - 10:15 pm End Maariv or Ma’ariv (Hebrew: מַעֲרִיב, ), also known as Arvit (Hebrew: עַרְבִית, ), is a Jewish prayer service held in the evening or night. It consists primarily of the evening Shema and Amidah. The service usually begins with two verses from Psalms, followed by the communal recitation of Barechu. The three paragraphs of the Shema are then said, both preceded and followed by two blessings, although sometimes a fifth blessing is added at the end. The hazzan (leader) then recites half-Kaddish. The Amidah is said quietly by everyone, and, unlike at the other services, is not repeated by the hazzan. He recites the full Kaddish, Aleinu is recited, and the mourners’ Kaddish ends the service. Other prayers occasionally added include the Counting of the Omer (between Passover and Shavuot) and Psalm 27 (between the first of Elul and the end of Sukkot). Maariv is generally recited after sunset. However, it may be recited as early as one and a quarter seasonal hours before sunset. This is common only on Friday nights, in order to begin Shabbat earlier. At the conclusion of Shabbat and holidays, the service is usually delayed until nightfall. While Maariv should be prayed before midnight, it may be recited until daybreak or even sunrise. Interested in sponsoring/Donating?
