Tonight, 120 Rabbis are graduating a full year intense post-semicha program, teaching them the ins-and-outs of the Jewish world today.
In this virtual course, housed by TheYeshiva.net, Rabbis, shluchim and talmidim across the globe studied in depth the major halachic issues of our modern times. From conversions to suicide; from divorces to autopsies; from mamzarus to electronics; from abortions to euthanasia; from intermarriage to the laws of a shul; from internet to astronomy, from fertility issues to officiating at a wedding.
Now, many of them who passed all the tests, will receive certification in contemporary Halacha.
Rabbi Feitel Levin from Melbourne, one of the greatest halachik authorities of our time, has guided these 120 students step by step in contemporary practical halacha and has given them difficult and challenging exams. Tonight they graduate.
Rabbi YY Jacobson has been teaching these rabbis the skills of public speaking and teaching, and throughout the summer will critique each of these Rabbi’s video presentations to show them how to enhance their speaking abilities. He will also teach them now to take abstract Chasdisus texts and apply them in a relevant way.
Featured speakers in this 45 minute ceremony are Rabbis Feitel Levin and YY Jacobson, and the following students Rabbi Levi Wolff, Sydney; and Rabbis Berel Dechter and Shmueli Lipsker from New York.
Registration is now open for next year’s online high-level Semicha program for very serious students, and the post-semicha program at rabbinics.theyeshiva.net
