Twenty years ago, hearty Ohr Kodesh members began to explore the original text of the tractate B'rakhot (Blessings). We completed that tractate and then began Tractate M'gillah. As we continue our study of the tractate M'gillah, we will encounter many discussions of the origins of synagogue practices including Torah reading. We use the Steinsaltz Hebrew edition and students also benefit from the Steinsaltz bilingual edition.
