Length: 1 hour 10 minutes
Synopsis: This evening (3/15/23), in our Wednesday night Tefilah shiur, I began by announcing that I've decided to stop giving a tefilah shiur because I'm out of my depth, and that we're going to go back to Tehilim after Pesach. I thought the shiur would be a disaster, but instead, I feel like we got closer to the essence of what tefilah is and how it works than we've ever gotten. If you've listened to Parts 1-4 and the two-part Sefer ha'Ikkarim shiur, then you won't want to miss this - and if you haven't listened to those shiurim, then you're not going to follow this one, and will probably end up with false ideas about God.

The Torah content for the rest of Adar has been sponsored by my friend and chavrusa Zack, with the following dedicatory message: When asked, "Who is a leader you greatly admire?" my grandfather z”l immediately comes to mind. Each person who entered his presence was brought closer to a better version of themselves. This was due to his staunch belief in people and his uncompromising values. Knowledge is similar — it is indiscriminate and uncompromising in its power to help us become our best selves. Thank you Rabbi Schneeweiss for spreading knowledge, and may the memory of my grandfather, Naftali ben Tzvi, be a blessing.
