This afternoon (2/1/21 at YBT, from Seattle) we began learning the next pair of topics on our agenda: kidush ha'Shem and chilul ha'Shem. We started with the mitzvah of kidush ha'Shem as formulated by the Rambam in the Sefer ha'Mitzvos, which differs markedly from his presentation in the Mishneh Torah and also from the conception of the mitzvah in the minds of the populace. Tomorrow we will continue with his presentation of chilul ha'Shem in the Sefer ha'Mitzvos and then move on to Hilchos Yesodei ha'Torah Chapter 5.

Bekius Disclaimer: 
Note that this is a bekius chavurah - as opposed to an iyun shiur. Each session consists of us reading through the Rambam's writings together without much preparation on my part, and without going into depth by consulting commentaries or primary sources. For all these reasons, there are bound to be inaccuracies, errors, and other types of shortcomings which would not be acceptable in a prepared shiur, but are quite typical of a bekius chavurah. Please bear this in mind, and know what you're signing up for when you listen!
