WebYeshiva is currently offering two new shiurim in time for Purim and Pesach:


Megillat Esther
Rabbi Yehoshua Geller, Sunday 11 pm Israel time, 4 pm New York time

The story of Megillat Esther is well know by many, yet misunderstood by most.  The true meaning and details of the story are right there in the pesukim, yet they often get overlooked.  This class will go beyond the basics to look at the real meaning of the pesukim and the fascinating background story encoded within them.

Haggada Shel Pesach
Rabbi Yehoshua Geller, Tuesday 8 pm Israel time, 1 pm New York time (beginning February 17th)

 The Pesach Haggada is not just a series of stories and verses strung together - it contains a precise logic and order. Each element is there for a reason and plays a very specific role in the structure and flow of the Haggada.  In this class we will examine all of the particular aspects of the Haggada and try to answer the questions, "why is it there?" and "what does it mean?"  We will also look at the story of Yetziat Mitzraim, and by way of Midrash, attempt to uncover the "behind the scenes" story embedded in the pesukim.
