CHAVURAH LIVE! Tonight, Tuesday February 3, 2026/Shevat 17, 5786
Tonight’s Chavurah starts with a baby update, followed by a discussion on prayer. We will talk of certain things to do when you pray as well as others to not do. We then shift to a discussion on a certain midrash that states four fifths of Israel died in the plague of darkness in Egypt. Using this midrash we examine how to use midrashim and allow it to take its correct place in our studies.
