Description

Leil Shishi Shiur This shiur discusses the fascinating question of whether a non-Jew who is seriously preparing for גירות may learn Torah before becoming a גר. Beginning with the machlokes between the מהרש״א and רבי עקיבא איגר, the מאירי and רמב״ם approach the issue, and conclude with the psak halacha of Reb Moshe, the Minchas Eluzar's point, and a couple possibilities to defend Rebbe Akiva Eiger's position.
