Description
In this shiur for Masechet Berachot 11a-11b:, we will study two parts of a single sugya: 1) Birchat Kriat Shema LiFanecha U'LeAchareha, the concept of ברכה ארוכה וברכה קצרה. We will analyze the view of Rashi, the objections raised by Tos', and the presentation of the Meiri which will defend Rashi against the onslaught of Tos'. 2) the controversy regarding the correct nusach for the opening words of the second of the Birchot Kriat Shema LiFaneha, i.e. אהבה רבה - אהבת עולם. Tos' offers a compromise & distinguishes between Shachris & Arvis. We will try to understand the deeper meaning behind this distinction.
