About this title

Synopsis

The weekly Torah portion is a great unifier of our people, with Jews the world over reading the same words of Torah week after week. These words serve as connection to our shared history, as well as inspiration regarding current events and personal life events. With fresh and creative insights based on traditional sources, Parashah Sheleimah opens a multi-faceted window to the weekly Torah reading ― for all events and all occasions ― divided into ten categories for each parashah. Rabbi Allen Schwartz has been the rabbi of the historic congregation Ohab Zedek in Manhattan, NY, for the past thirty-three years, and has taught at Yeshiva University for the past thirty-eight years. He recently published the Four Sons Haggadah and Conflict and Resolution in the Early Prophets. You’ve learned the daf, how will your life be transformed? Whether you’ve been doing daf yomi for years or you’re not quite ready to commit but want to be part of the daf yomi global movement, there’s something in The Transformative Daf for everyone. It’s about joining the conversation. It’s about talking over the daf with your family, your friends, your colleagues. It means never being short of a discussion-starter or a meaningful devar Torah. Every page of the Gemara, every word, every letter, contains the secrets of the universe to achieving a life of simchah and purpose. Transform your life today!
