Penn Hillel’s shiurim committee is inviting Rabbi Yitzhak Blau from Alon Shvut to speak this upcoming Shabbat. Following kiddush Saturday morning, he will discuss the topic: “Covenantal agreements:why are we bound today by the covenant of our forefathers?” over Shabbat lunch in the Berkowitz Living Room on the first floor of Hillel.
Blau previously taught at Yeshiva of Flatbush High school in New York, and is currently an educator at Yeshivat Hamivtar, an institution near Efrat that caters to university and post-graduates students. He is also a frequent contributor to the periodicals Tradition and Torah U’Madda Journal.
His insights on Aggadda and Pirkei Avot can be found on Yeshivat Hamivtar’s Website.
