Avos 4:9 - Devotion to Torah in Poverty

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 31 minutesSynopsis: Last night (12/5/24), in our Thursday night Pirkei Avos shiur for women, we learned a mishnah about the relationship between wealth, poverty, and living a life of Torah. Even though we only fully learned one commentary (Rabbeinu Yonah), the ideas we discussed here are relevant to most of us, and have major implications for how we structure our lives.-----מקורות:אבות ד:טרש"ירמב"םרבינו יונהמאירירמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר זרעים, הלכות שמיטה ויובל יג:יב-יגקהלת ז:כטמשלי ל:ז-טאברהם בן הרמב"ם - בראשית כח:כ-----This week's Torah content has been generously sponsored by Ann, a dedicated supporter of the Rabbi Schneeweiss Torah Content Fund.
