This week, Baruch Hashem weve made remarkable headway in the difficult sugyos of Taruvos.  We are working on clarifying the Rishonim and are soon going to move onto the Shulchan Aruch. Thursday was a real treat for all who attended the Yore Deah Legal Holiday Shiur by Rabbi Eidlitz. He discussed a wide array of topics ranging from the Mesorah of Kosher species, to the relevant Halachos of Bishul Akum.   All who came were amazed at Rabbi Eidlitzs mastery of Yoreh Deah and we look foward to the next Legal Holiday shiur which will be Iyh December 25, 2019.
