Which Chachamim Do We Honor? (Iggros Moshe Orach Chayim 2:34)

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!This afternoon (2/7/22), in our Rambam Bekius chavurah, we tied up the loose ends from last week. We began by revisiting the machlokess in the Gemara about whether a rav can forego his honor. We learned R' Moshe Feinstein's beautiful (and halachically radical) explanation of that Gemara, and more. I have a feeling this will form the foundation for our whole understanding of Perek 6. In the remaining minutes of shiur we added a few more insights to our understanding of the halachos about kavod ha'talmidim. Tomorrow (בג"ה) we begin the next perek!מקורות:רמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תלמוד תורה ה:יא-יגקידושין דף יט עמוד א;לב עמוד א-ב; לג עמוד אאגרות משה - אורח חיים ב:לדמגילה דף כח עמוד במכות דף כב עמוד ברמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר זמנים, הלכות מגילה וחנוכה ד:יב"Plain Speaking: An Oral Biography of Harry S.

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.
