  • Tehilim 148: A Universe of Praise (Part 2 of 2)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Tonight (11/9/21) in our Tehilim/Tefilah shiur we finished our analysis of Tehilim 148, thanks to the commentary (!) of the Rambam. Although we didn't answer every single question, we definitely got the main idea and import of this powerful psalm. We've now learned 4 out of the 6 chapters of pesukei de'zimra. All that remains is 149 and Ashrei!

  • Tehilim 148: A Universe of Praise (Part 1 of 2)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Tonight (11/4/21) in our Tehilim/Tefilah shiur we began learning Tehilim 148. We thought this would end up being similar to 147 because of the overlap in themes, but it looks like this one has a theme of its own. We spent this evening translating the perek, raising questions and problems, and trying to identify the pivot point. Next time we hope to come up with a theory that explains the entire perek, and begin working through the individual pesukim to see how that theory plays out.

    Tonight (10/26/21) in our Tehilim/Tefilah shiur we continued our analysis of the seemingly "all over the place" Chapter 147. Thankfully, the Meiri provides a unifying theory. We began learning his commentary tonight and (God willing) he will help us tie everything together on Thursday.

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Tonight (10/21/21) in our Tehilim/Tefilah shiur we began learning Perek 147. After translating the pesukim, we spent the majority of the shiur trying to find some semblance of order in its chaos. Although we recite this every morning, we were shocked to discover how "all over the place" it was in its themes. Next time we'll attempt to come up with a theory about the main idea, and then turn to the meforshim.

    Part 2 and Part 3

  • The Order of Shevach and Bakashah (Part 2) (Rashba on Berachos 32a)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    In this evening's tefilah shiur (10/19/21) we continued Rashba's commentary on Berachos 32a in which he explains the machlokess in Avodah Zarah 7b about whether we should engage in shevach (praise) first and bakashah (request) afterwards, or vice versa. We finished learning through the Rashba's commentary and - thanks to Rav Pesach's shiur from 2013 - we defined the machlokess and explained the ideas in a satisfactory manner!

    Part 1  of this shiur.
    Part 1 of Rav Pesach's shiur.

  • The Order of Shevach and Bakashah (Part 1) (Rashba on Berachos 32a)

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    I was recently asked a question about what, exactly, we're doing when we praise Hashem in tefilah. I was also recently asked the same question about making requests in tefilah. In this evening's tefilah shiur (10/14/21) our goal was to address both topics simultaneously. We began learning the Rashba's commentary on Berachos 32a in which he explains a machlokess in Avodah Zarah 7b about whether we should engage in shevach (praise) first and bakashah (request) afterwards, or vice versa. The Rashba forewarns us that this Gemara contains some fundamental ideas about tefilah - and he was right! Next time we'll attempt to refine these ideas and finish the Rashba. After that, we'll either continue in this topic or switch back to Tehilim.

    Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

    Tonight (10/7/21) we continued our analysis of Tehilim 20. After reviewing the translation according to the Radak, we set out to try to understand the main idea. I mentioned that I only feel like I have 75% of an understanding, but I'd lay out everything I have on the table. As I did, we started to see the main idea materialize ... we just didn't have time to tie it all together. Our plan for next Tuesday will be to do that, to answer Adler's four questions, and (I hope) to gain insight into the minhag of saying this perek at the end of shacharis.

In this first session we read and translated the entire perek formulated our impressions and questions, identified the pivot point, and then read through the Radak's entire commentary. Next time we will attempt to understand the perek and answer all our questions.
