Rambam: Krias Shema, Chapter 1

Why the omission of the name revealed to Moshe? Reply

My comments are relating to the course Rambam with Rabbi YY Jacobson

First, I am greatly appreciative that you are making these courses available. As a "lone Jew" way out in the country without a Synagogue, Rabbi or fellow Jew withing 50 miles of me, such opportunities are most welcome and appreciated.

That being said, also because of my isolation, I was never afforded the opportunity to learn my faith except through my own study and what my non-practicing family shared with me. I do not speak, read or understand Hebrew. I am trying so hard to keep up with and understand what I know is precious information that I really need to know, but the Rabbi, I assume, is speaking to an audience far more familiar with the Torah and the Hebrew language than I. The speed of delivery of the information is more than I am able to keep up with and understand. I find myself picking out a word here or there that I understand but because I am unable to understand the rest of the speech. Reply
