The Yamim Noraim, the High Holidays, start with Rosh Hashanah and end with Sukkot. Initially, while the focus of our prayers the month preceding Rosh Hashanah through Yom Kippur are on teshuvah, the Hoshanat prayers of Sukkot go back to temple times and focus on protecting the natural world from humans to plants, and so on.

Join ⁠⁠Rabbi Yehoshua Geller⁠⁠ as he explores the significance of Hoshanot in the Beit Hamikdash as אנא ה הושיעה נא would be said while surrounding the altar and how that translates to our practice of Hoshanot today.

Kedushat ha-Shem: In this episode when reciting the kedusha prayer, should we look upwards or downwards? Eyes open or closed? Where is G-d’s “place”? And what is holiness anyway?

This week we will learn about someone who owns a cistern on someone else's property. He has the right to access it during the day but not at night. If someone has a public path through his field, he cannot decide to move that path. If he does, he loses the rights to the original and new paths. We will also learn how people were buried in the time of the Mishna and Gemara and what rights people had to that land.

Join ⁠⁠Rabbi Dovid Ebner⁠⁠ for this special Yeshivat Hamivtar alumni series: A close reading of selected chapters covering all 5 sections of Rambam’s Sefer HaMada (Book of Knowledge). The goals are pedagogical in terms of actually plumbing the depths of Rambam’s thought through a close reading of the text. For example, what does it mean to command the love of God or of our fellow man… or what is the ideal of human character and how can it be accomplished. The course is not a discussion group – it is, rather, an attempt to understand what Rambam maintains by weighing and analyzing his words carefully and precisely

This week we will learn that when a person buys produce, he accepts a certain percentage of impurities in the sale. When the buyer says he wants to buy wine for cooking, he is really telling the seller that it must last for a long time.  If a person sells wine and later on it is spoiled, the seller isn’t responsible

Gevurot: In this episode the second blessing describes God as God of nature and the One who resurrects the dead. In this class we look at the relationship between rain (nature) and resurrection. And consider whether the prime focus of this prayer was initially against the belief of the Sadducees.
