Continuing the exploration of the laws of Nidui (Ostracism) and Herem (Excommunication)

Concluding Chapter 6 of Hilkhot Talmud Torah, we look at the behaviour expected of rabbis and leaders, and what tools one has to publicly shame someone who is misbehaving (Nidui and Herem)

We continue our exploration of the codes of honour, this time regarding Sages in general (rabbinim students of the wise, and others)

Continuing our study of Chapter 5, the reverence and respect due to teachers by students – and what students are owed from their teachers

Starting Chapter 5, we explore how and when one is due respect to their teacher

In the conclusion of Chapter 4, we look more at what makes for a good student, a good question, and the best classroom environment

Finishing Chapter 3 and moving into Chapter 4, Rambam investigates what makes for an ideal student and a good teacher.

In the continuation of Chapter 3, we look at the ideal image of a Torah scholar, particularly how it relates to work and making a living. Rambam's detailed takedown anyone who would claim wisdom but eschew work is a refreshing and needed reminder in today's Jewish world.

Rambam continues exploring the principles of education

We start on the laws of Torah study with general principles about learning – who can and should learn, when and how often, and to what extent does the obligation to education apply to ourselves as well as our children.
