A mitzvah that is both widely observed and very demanding, Shabbat is the focal point of the Jewish week. To properly keep Shabbat, one must have an understanding of the various laws and customs associated with the holy day. In this new course, use visual aids to illuminate intricate legal analyses and legal derivations from the Talmud, shedding light into the mystery of Shabbat and its source in Biblical passages.
This course focuses on the melachot as studied and examined by the Talmud. A unique biblical verse is explored for all the implications that derive from it. The lay out and structure of this course are significantly improved over the earlier courses.
