“Mr. Yerushalmi’s previous writings . . . established him as one of the Jewish community’s most important historians. His latest book should establish him as one of its most important critics. Zakhor is historical thinking of a very high order - mature speculation based on massive scholarship.” - New York Times Book Review

Rabbi Binyamin Tabory¿s many students know him as a master educator who makes the highest level of classical yeshiva learning accessible with his pedagogic skill and warm personality. In The Weekly Mitzva, Rabbi Tabory discusses a mitzva ¿ sometimes familiar, sometimes obscure ¿ connected to each week¿s parasha. His unique approach combines Brisker-style abstract analysis with the illustrative case law characteristic of the Achronim. For each topic, Rabbi Tabory quickly arrives at the fundamental hakira¿ the logical point upon which the discussion hinges, and applies that insight to various practical questions. For decades, Rabbi Tabory taught students across four continents. Now, The Weekly Mitzva enables readers to bring Rabbi Tabory¿s special brand of Torah to their own Shabbat table discussions.
