1. Ḥachamim: Introduction (Part 1)

In this series, we encounter remarkable Ḥachamim whose lives illuminate the great currents of Jewish history — their writings, their struggles, their leadership, and their enduring wisdom. Together, we will travel through the centuries, discovering the soul of our people, one sage at a time. (11/13/2025) "Ḥachamim: Exploring Jewish History Through the Lives of Our Sages" is an exciting new class series taught by Rabbanit Dr. Devorah Halevy at the Shiviti Bet Midrash. — Historical note: Rabbi Yitzchak Canpanton (c. 1360–1463), Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman (the Ramban, 1194–1270), and Rabbi Avraham Zacuto (1452–c. 1515/18) lived in different eras; only Rabbi Canpanton and Rabbi Zacuto overlapped for about eleven years, and thus editions of Sefer Yuchasin that cite Rabbi Avraham as quoting Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman who quoted Rabbi Yitzchak Canpanton are chronologically inaccurate in their implication. — Rabbanit Devorah Halevy's official YouTube channel!
