Clear presentation

I have listened to many of Rabbi Schapiro's lectures. They are all very clear and to the point. You walk away having a greater understanding of the sublect and you then have the abiity to explain it and pass it on to others.

Phonetic pronouncement of Hebrew

I must confess that I don’t know Hebrew but when I say a word I want to make sure I pronounce it correctly. For example מֹשֶׁה I know is Moshe or in English Moses. Is there a web site that would help me pronounce Moshe correctly?

Classic Argument of the Talmud

Great teaching!!! Much clarity. I always wanted to study the Talmud. I bought the book. Now I will be able to understand it better. Thank you so much. I am grateful. I have two (2) questions: 1. What is the difference from Talmud and Mishnah?
2. Did Abraham Aveninu and Sarai keep Chanukah?

Classic Arguments of the Talmud

The world needs Hashem to give it life, we must also heed His word to make it right. So without potential you have no actuality and so on. We need to hear both sides of the law or it makes the law pointless to put into effect. Great lecture!

The words for potential and actual.

This is wonderful. Rabbi Schapiro is clear and understandable. I now know what Tu B'Shevat is about! Would it be possible to send me the Hebrew language words for potential and actual?
