Nachum Segal Welcomes Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz with Rabbi Dr Tzvi Hersh Weinreb to Discuss the New Koren Shas
It was an exciting morning at JM in the AM as Nachum welcomed Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz and Rabbi Dr Tzvi Hersh Weinreb to discuss the amazing new Koren Shas (Talmud) project whose first edition, masechet (tractate) Berakhot is available now. The New Koren English Talmud will provide another option for English speaking students of the Talmud. The translation is adapted from Rabbi Steinsaltz's translation into modern Hebrew and the commentary is his. But in keeping with tradition, the New English Talmud stays true to the canonized pagination of the Talmud. Nachum and the Rabbis discussed how this new Shas promises easier access to, and a deeper understanding of our timeless texts. Click the link to listen.
