Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text! Length: 1 hour 48 minutes Synopsis: This evening (9/4/25), in our first Thursday night Pirkei Avos shiur for women of the 2025-2026 season, we took up a mishnah that happens to be on the same topic as Sefer Iyov, which will be a major focus of mine this year! In fact, this mishnah seems to undermine Iyov in its entirety! Thankfully, Sforno came to the rescue with a lengthy but rich commentary that answered every single question we raised on the mishnah. Not only that, but we came away with a "meta idea" that will likely set the course for our entire learning of Sefer Iyov. What a great way to begin this year of women's shiurim! ----- מקורות: אבות ד:טו ברכות דף ה עמוד ב תענית דף כא עמוד א ----- The Torah Content for the month of September is sponsored by Meir Areman in loving memory of his grandmother, Esther Chasha bas Meir Gedalya, who recently passed away on the 25th of Av.
