Rabbis Yosef Gavriel Bechhofer and Avraham Kivelevitz devote themselves in this episode to positive outgrowths for the Jewish world post the Corona Virus lockdown.They discuss how future weddings will be planned with much less expense and pressure,as well as the realization of how vital the computer and internet is in educating the broadest swath of students.Rabbi Bechhofer comments on the positive aspects of Davening at home even on Shabbas,and Rabbi Kivelevitz invoking the famous epistle of the Vilna Gaon envisions a different type of Shul attendance and experience post Corona.The pair suggest how seemingly non relevant studies can actually provide direct antidotes to the crisis,by planting in one's mind poetic but accurate parallels to the situation we are engulfed in.Rabbi Bechhofer shares elements of a monograph he is writing on Rabbinic responses to the Spanish Flu while Rabbi Kivelevitz interprets a passage from the recent Daf Yomi dealing with starting a fire before Shabbas in a way that provides a road map for achdus specifically through the enforced isolation.Please leave us a review or email us at ravkiv@gmail.comFor more information on this podcast visityeshivaofnewark.jewishpodcasts.org See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
