Killing Your Coddled Self for Torah (Hilchos Talmud Torah 3:12)

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!This afternoon (11/11/21), in our Rambam Bekius chavurah, we analyzed every single component of Halacha 12a-b. We came up with a unified theory for 12a, answering all five (or six?) of our questions in the process and explaining how a coddled learner's learning will suffer. We also did a decent job explaining the components of 12b, about "killing yourself" in your learning and learning "in anger." ----------מקורות:רמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תלמוד תורה א:י; ג:יברמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות דעות ד:א,דרמב"ם - מורה הנבוכים, הקדמהתורה תמימה - קהלת ב:ט, אות מתורה תמימה - במדבר כט:יד, אות סגרש"י - משלי כד:ימדרש משלי כד:י----------This week's Torah content has been sponsored anonymously.

Each session consists of us reading through the Rambam's writings together without much preparation on my part, and without going into depth by consulting commentaries or primary sources. For all these reasons, there are bound to be inaccuracies, errors, and other types of shortcomings which would not be acceptable in a prepared shiur, but are quite typical of a bekius chavurah. Please bear this in mind, and know what you're signing up for when you listen!----------If you have questions, comments, or feedback, I can be reached at rabbischneeweiss at gmail.----------If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider contributing to my Patreon at www.patreon.com/rabbischneeweiss.
