Torah Podcasts
November 17th, 2009 by Leora
For those of you who like to learn Torah online, our rabbi, Rabbi David Bassous, sent out a link recently to Torah Central. On that site one can find podcasts by many distinguished rabbis such as Rabbi Hayyim Angel, Rabbi Ezra Labaton (who long ago taught at my high school) and Rabbi Jonathan Sacks and scholars Professor Hayim Tawil (who is a friend of a relative) and psychologist Dr. David Pelcovitz (whom I once hear give a talk on abuse in the Jewish community). I looked more closely and discovered there are 55 lectures by Rabbi Bassous on that site. Enjoy.
Hello Leora! Oh how sweet that your daughter has such a nice companion to read to. Happy Ruby to you!!
Thank you for the link. I will most definitely visit it.
Glad you find this useful.
Thank you for the information. I’ll go and check it now.
One problem I have with shiurim though is that when the shiur was delivered in front of an audience you don’t hear what the audience say, especially the questions they ask. The rabbis don’t seem to realize this and never repeat the questions for the beefit of the mp3 listener who can soon feel very lost.
Yes, that is a good point. Perhaps they could print the questions next to the podcast, sort of like some podcasts have a transcript (but this could just be whatever is difficult to hear in the recording).
