Short Machshava on the Daf

Series page

Each Daf in Shas has Machshava depth to it, in some it's easy to find - the Agadata of Shas, and in some it takes some research.

The Short Machshava series aims to discover, discuss in short, and give somewhat of an understanding of the Machshava of the Daf.

Given by Rabbi Yechezkel Hartman, a Talmid of Rabbi Moshe Shapiro zt"l, and a Magid Shiur in Lawrence NY
