During this period of Bein Hametzarim, Beis Yisroel is
working to reinforce the study and fulfillment of hilchos
shemiras haloshon, in part through the success of an wide
array of condensed shiurim on hilchos shemiras
haloshon held in hundreds of cities and neighborhoods and
sponsored by Notzrei Haloshon.
Three weeks ago maranan verabonon issued a call to the
holy yeshivas, talmudei Torah and schools as well as
every family and individual, to strengthen the study of
hilchos shemiras haloshon. The message was well
received everywhere as more and more shiurim were
organized in chareidi areas for men eager to study hilchos
shemiras haloshon.
The enormous demand among women for a similar series
surprised even shemiras haloshon activists. Hotlines
around the country were flooded with calls from rebbetzins,
teachers, educators and individual women requesting and even
pleading for additional shiurim, which are currently
being organized.
Dozens of shiurim are being held in places such as
Elad, Beit Shemesh, Modi'in Illit and Tiberius. Times and
places have been publicized in local announcements. Numerous
shiurim are also underway in Rechovot, where a
conference for women is scheduled. The city's chief rabbi,
HaRav Simchoh HaKohen Cook, also agreed to take part in the
shiurim and spoke highly of the initiative.
Shiurim are also being held in places such as Rishon
Letzion, Netivot and Zichron Yaakov. Details are posted in
botei knesses there. In Jerusalem and Bnei Brak as
well numerous shiurim are being given by well-known
rabbonim.
