Mishnah in Depth: Middot
Join Rabbi Avie Walfish for Mishnah Middot every Sunday! This course is a presentation of the Rifka Rosenwein Z”L Mishnah Division. And join Drisha’s Mishnah Yomit community! Working with the most standard daily mishnah study schedule, you will join a group of committed learners who dedicate time each day for the study of 1–2 mishnayot. Over a period of weeks and months of regular study, you will complete Tractates and even entire Orders of Mishnah.
Tractate Middot describes and discusses the physical measurements of the second Temple.
To anchor and support your individual learning, Drisha’s Mishnah Yomit program includes a weekly Mishnah Yomit b’Iyun (in-depth) shiur. In this shiur, you will have the opportunity to review portions of the past week’s material and go deep into select elements of the text (e.g., core concepts discussed; how the mishnayot interpret and interact with the biblical background; the literary structure and reception history of the unit) — all within the context of a collaborative community of fellow learners.
Please note: Session 1 also contains session 4 of 4 from Mishnah in Depth: Tamid.
