120 bochurim from Tomchei Tmimim Yeshiva in Brunoy, France, participated in the in depth learning of Tanya this year, beginning on Yud Tes Kislev.
The bochurim studied for the past few months and were tested on each Perek. The final test on all of the Prokim of the Tanya took place recently.
20 bochurim who received the highest test scores participated in a Chidon competition on the material.
During the Chidon, questions were asked of each of the participants, until the final round of four bochurim was held. The final part of the competition was a written exam, with the 3 top winners announced.
The winner was declared as Levi Dahan, who won the full set of Toras Menachem, an anthology of the Rebbe’s Sichos, a 60 sefer set.
“May it be that thanks to all this study it will be possible to reach what Moshiach answered the Baal Shem Tov (to his question “When will you come?”) -“When your wellsprings will spread,” organizers said.
