MORE INFO

The Mishnah is a collection of Jewish laws which was compiled in 200 CE by Rabbi Judah The Prince. The Mishnah expanded the Hebrew Bible into specific customs and practices in prayer, holidays, dietary laws and everyday ethics. It is traditional to study Jewish texts each day as we “count the Omer” [a measure of barley] brought to the ancient Temple during the period extending from Passover until Shavuot [May 19-21]

My son – Rabbi David Silverstein – is conducting the experiment for us.

It is our goal is to complete all of the Mishnah for Tractate Brachot [Blessing/prayers] in time for a joyous celebration of Shavuot.

I hope you find meaning in daily traditional Torah study.

Chag Sameach,
