this is a fabulous review of the women's Hadran siyyum hashas from the daf yomi cycle.

One can approve or disapprove of women learning gemara (as if they need, or want, the approval of men in the first place!), but one cannot deny the historic significance of the event/siyyum. And they put on a wonderful event, to boot!

  1. I'm courious, was there any backlash from The chareidi world on this?
    Or anything in the newspapers or pashkivilin?

  2. I have not seen anything beyond some snickering and scoffing in a minor way

    1. R' Aviner came out pretty strongly against it.

    2. that is true but the question posed was about backlash from the charedi world. Rav Aviner is not part of the charedi world.

    3. well......technically yes, i said chareidi, but I guess I actually meant the religious community in general, although I thought the backlash would've been primarily chareidi.
      Anyways, thanks, always enjoy checking out your blog!
