Rosh Chodesh Shevat marks the date when Moshe Rabbeinu began his final address to the Jewish people in the desert. In the book of Devarim, Moshe inspires the people with a repetition of select mitzvot, words of encouragement, and admonition as he bids them farewell. The Sages liken this date to the day of the giving of the Torah. Just as the sixth of Sivan marks the date when we annually reaccept the Torah, Rosh Chodesh Shevat remains an auspicious time to renew our dedication and commitment, as the repetition of the Torah's inspiring messages began on this date. 

Join the OU Women's Initiative at ou.org/women/video on Monday January 3 at 12 noon EST for our virtual Rosh Chodesh Shevat shiur with Mrs. Rachel Burg.

Mrs. Rachel Burg, a senior lecturer for Aish HaTorah, teaches Judaism in an engaging, interactive style. She currently is the director of Aish Destiny, a spiritual growth oriented mission for women to Israel. Rachel is also the founder and educational director of SoulFood, an international educational program for women who have a limited Judaic background. 

Having trained in Special Education which led to almost three decades of experience teaching in the classroom and having directed Camp Dina for young women, Rachel has learned how to inspire and engage Jews of all backgrounds. 

She currently lives in Bergenfield, NJ with her husband, Rabbi Steven Burg, and six wonderful children.

All the best,
 

Rebbetzin Dr. Adina Shmidman
Director, The Women's Initiative
