Delafield Jewish Center Torah

For the last few years I have had the privilege of bringing a few words of Torah to the esteemed DJC congregation on Friday Nights. I can honestly say that I have gained more than anyone in the congregation through this activity - and I know this because I am the only one who has never nodded off during the presentation! :-)

It is my hope to bring the teachings of R. Chanaya b. Akashya to our members and friends via the Internet as well, by posting a summary every week right here on my blog, providing a reference for those who wish to review, and a facility for those who were unable to be present. The first summary will hopefully be posted by this Motzaei Shabbat (12/10/06).

Comments on this or any other topic are most welcome. Shabbat Shalom!

  1. Chananya Bar Akashya?

  2. Yes, RCBA, who uttered the immortal phrase: Ratza haKadosh baruch hu lezakot et yisrael, lefikach hirba lahem Tora umitzvot, she-ne’emar, Adonai chafetz Lema’an tzidko yagdil Torah ve-ya’adir (Mishna Makkot 3:16).
