When Rabbi Reuven Finkelstein originally proposed that joining his weekly class would mean completing a full tractate of the Talmud within a year, most people thought, "Well, surely he doesn't mean me!".
Two years of dedicated study later, Rabbi Finkelstein's Talmud class has completed their second tractate. In the first year, they studied Taanis, the tractate that deals with the laws of fasting. This year, they have completed Chagigah, the tractate that tackles various laws of Yom Tov.
And, no, the students do not have previous Gemorah-study experience. All they have is commitment.
To celebrate the conclusion of Chagigah, the group invites the community to a Siyum at the Shul on Thursday, 6th December at 8PM.
Now's your chance to sign up for next year's class, where they plan to complete the ever-intriguing tractate of Megillah. To join the class, please click here.
