Length: 1 hour 33 minutes
Synopsis: Tonight (5/23/24), in our Thursday night Pirkei Avos shiur for women, we began learning the next mishnah, but our focus was on the Rambam's diatribe - and that really is the most accurate word - against those who take money for Torah. We set out clear objectives and non-objectives. Our main goal for this evening was to read and discuss the Rambam's commentary on this mishnah, trying to understand as much as we could from THIS treatment of the topic. Our goal was NOT to stray into the other sources where the Rambam addresses this, nor to discuss how this translates into practical halacha, nor to discuss the views of those who disagree with the Rambam. Next time (בג"ה) we'll review what we learned tonight, analyze the Rambam's treatment of the topic in the Mishneh Torah and some other sources, then turn out attention to those who disagree. Hopefully, by the end, we'll emerge with a clearer understanding of our mishnah according to both sides.

The Torah content from now through Lag ba'Omer has been generously sponsored by Malky M. June is less than a month away which means that I'll soon be transitioning into "summer writing mode," with more substack articles and fewer recorded shiurim. The bulk of these articles will remain free. However, if you would like to support my Torah AND gain access to additional spicy written content, consider becoming a paid subscriber by going to rabbischneeweiss.substack.com.

Alternatively, if you would like to make a direct contribution to the "Rabbi Schneeweiss Torah Content Fund," my Venmo is @Matt-Schneeweiss, and my Zelle and PayPal are mattschneeweiss at gmail. Even a small contribution goes a long way to covering the costs of my podcasts, and will provide me with the financial freedom to produce even more Torah content for you.
If you would like to sponsor a day's or a week's worth of content, or if you are interested in enlisting my services as a teacher or tutor, you can reach me at rabbischneeweiss at gmail.
