The Nature of Nusach (Liturgy) Part 3: Rambam's Position (WARNING: Highly Technical)

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 14 minutesSynopsis: This morning (12/13/24), in our tefilah-focused Machshavah Lab series for women, we attempted to understand the Rambam's view, as expressed in a pair of seemingly contradictory halachos. We learned through two commentaries on the Rambam who offered explanations: the Kesef Mishneh and the Yad Peshuta. Believe me, I didn't intend for these to be highly technical halachic shiurim (which is usually the type of thing I'd reserve for my Rambam Bekius podcast, not my Machshavah Lab shiurim), but alas - that's where we ended up. The good news is that we emerged with a clearer understanding of WHAT the Rambam holds. Next time, we'll delve into WHY the Rambam takes such a conservative stance when it comes to making change in the received nusach.Please feel free to leave your questions, insights, and feedback in the comments! -----מקורות:רמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר אהבה, הלכות קריאת שמע א:זרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר אהבה, הלכות ברכות א:ה-וכסף משנה שםיד פשוטה שםברכות דף מ עמוד ברמב"ם - שו"ת בלאו סימן רנד עמוד 465-----This week's Torah content has been generously sponsored by Ann, a dedicated supporter of the Rabbi Schneeweiss Torah Content Fund.
