Bochurim of Oholei Torah and a vast number of additional students around the world continue to benefit from Pathways to Iyun.
PTI is a project initiated 3 years ago, to continue the work of Rabbi Peretz Hecht a”h, whose yahrzeit will be observed Tuesday, Gimmel Teves.
Pathways to Iyun has been designed to present Talmiday Hayeshiva with an advantage not otherwise available in the English language, to cruise through a piece of Gemara, with strategy, for in depth learning.
The benefit to bochurim is immeasurable. A bochur can then go back to review time and again following the pathway, set forth in each comprehensive lesson. Without the luxury of sitting in class, the online website(rabbihecht.wordpress.com) is a great resource to study Gemara L’iyun.
The goal of the project is to develop the entire 6 year cycle of Talmud taught in yeshiva, into 6 seforim to become part of anyone’s (English) library.
Historically, Rabbi Peretz Hecht spent close to 20 years listening, cajoling, encouraging, supporting, building- up and loving the students he taught at Oholei Torah who were vulnerable and otherwise disgruntled.
Talmiday R’ Peretz warmed to his love and care, his mentoring and teaching, so much so, that it left a lifelong impression.
May this endearing project of Limud Hatorah Lishma bring lasting merit to a very unique individual, particularly a very special teacher and mentor. Yehi Zicro Boruch.

I used to sit in Oholei Torah by myself in Zal and R Peretz would come and learn with me. This was in Elul 5767. He one day started crying to me as we were learning and telling me how incredible I was as a bochur and how he was worried about his wifes health. I was so touched to how much he cared and it really helped me out tremendously.
