A class by Rabbi Heschel Greenberg on the Rambam’s Mishneh Torah: A husband must formally warn his wife against secluding herself with a specific man before the sotah process can begin.
Rabbi Heschel Greenberg has launched a new series of classes on the Rambam’s Mishneh Torah in response to the Rebbe’s call to learn at least one halacha in depth.
The Rebbe initiated a major effort to unite all Jews with the study of the entire encyclopedic work, Mishneh Torah, by learning three chapters a day and completing the entire work in less than a year. Alternatively, one can learn one chapter and complete the entire Mishneh Torah in close to three years. The Rebbe also gave a third option to study Maimonides’ companion work, Sefer Hamitzvos that parallel the Mishneh Torah.
In addition, the Rebbe requested that we learn one halacha in depth.
We recently began the 46nd cycle of Mishneh Torah which inspired Rabbi Greenberg to record brief classes on selected passages of the Mishneh Torah.
Rabbi Heschel Greenberg is a shliach of the Rebbe in Buffalo NY and the Director of the Jewish Discovery Center, and, for over 50 years, has taught thousands of classes on all aspects of Jewish knowledge.
Rabbi Greenberg has also authored dozens of works on diverse subjects including several volumes of commentary on the Mishneh Torah.
Many of Rabbi Greenberg’s classes can be accessed on his website rabbigreenberg.com.
What if one seemingly simple verse in the Torah actually reveals a groundbreaking halachic principle that changes how we understand warnings, communication, and even the power of the written word in Jewish law? In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into Rambam’s Hilchos Sotah and uncover the Maharsham’s brilliant teshuva that proves: a husband can warn his wife in writing – and the Rambam himself is the proof.
