HaRav Shteinman Honors Daf HaYomi Siyum in Ashdod

By Eliezer Rauchberger

Meoros HaDaf HaYomi sponsored a major event at the main Vishnitz beis medrash in Ashdod's Rova Zayin neighborhood to mark the completion of Seder Moed and the beginning of maseches Yevomos. Thousands of Daf Yomi learners and maggidei shiurim from the Southern and Negev Regions were joined by gedolei Torah, roshei yeshivos and rabbonim, headed by HaRav Aharon Leib Shteinman shlita.

The enormous event is part of a long list of activities sponsored by Meoros HaDaf HaYomi to foster Daf Yomi study around the country. In the Southern and Coastal Regions alone the organization has set up dozens of shiurim in various cities. With the completion of Seder Moed it was decided to organize a major event to increase the number of participants and encourage existing shiurim.

The gathering was graced by the presence of HaRav Aharon Leib Shteinman, the Admor of Nadvorna, the Admor of Pittsburgh, rabbonim from southern cities and the head of the beis medrash for Meoros HaDaf HaYomi maggidei shiurim, HaRav Dovid Kovalsky.

The event opened with a special presentation on matters pertaining to maseches Yevomos. Music was provided by a band led by R' Aharon Sammet of Jerusalem.
