A Note From a Friend
Daf Yomi at Sons of Israel
Our Daf Yomi group, the daily study of Talmud, got a shout-out from Rav Eli Stefansky at the Mercaz Daf Yomi in Bet Shemesh. A visitor to our community was so impressed that he took a video and sent it to Rav Eli, who played it before the next day's lesson.
