Requests for New Daf Yomi Shiurim as Maseches Pesochim
Scheduled to Begin
by Betzalel Kahn
Meoros HaDaf HaYomi and other Daf Yomi organizations have
been flooded with an unprecedented wave of requests for new
shiurim inspired by the billing for the major Daf Yomi
event scheduled to take place on Sunday 15 Teves (January) at
Binyanei Ha'Uma in Jerusalem.
A delegation of rabbonim from Meoros HaDaf HaYomi headed by
HaRav Chaim Dovid Kovalsky is continuing to conduct a round
of visits to invite maranan verabonon gedolei Yisroel
to the event designed to encourage Daf Yomi learners and
recruit new participants. The rabbonim spoke about the
importance of setting aside a period of time each day for the
study of gemora and halochoh, praising Meoros HaDaf
HaYomi for its efforts to encourage more and more Jews to
study the Daf Yomi, particularly those who did not have the
opportunity to learn Talmud in their youth.
The Meoros office reports Daf Yomi participants are expected
to come to Sunday's event from faraway locations such as
Yeruchom, Netivot, Be'er Sheva, Ofakim, Ashdod, Ashkelon,
Kiryat Gat, Tzfas, Carmiel, Or Akiva, Yokne'am, Nehariyah,
Meron, Haifa and the Haifa Bay suburbs. Seats in the main
hall are already sold out, but tickets are still available
for the adjacent halls where the event will be screened
live.
