Posted on | July 19, 2012 | By Administrator | 2 Comments
Rabbi Yosef Shalom Elyashiv zt”l dies at 102 and the Prime Minister eulogizes him, praising him for his ‘ways of love for Torah and love for man’. The NY Times covers it here.
Understanding Torah observance and it’s growth path requires continuing reflection and this post tries to clear up some Misconceptions About Shul Centrality.
Neil Harris rethinks his online social connections in the post-Asifa world in the Jewish Press.

Neil Harris’s post was superb. I have never been on Facebook or Twitter and have no desire to do so. I can’t repeat too often that Web based Divrei Torah, etc, are not a substitute for real time with a chavrusa or in a shiur. Ain HaKriah Domeh LShmiah.

!00% true, Steve (and thank you). For those isolated or insecure about going to a beis midrash, the web-Torah is an alternative, but not a substitute.
