The inaugural season of the Leadership Kollel continued its speaker series this past week with a visit from Rabbi Yaakov Neuburger, rav of Congregation Beth Abraham and rosh yeshiva at YU. Rabbi Neuburger greeted each of the members of the kollel individually before presenting a riveting shiur on the conflicting conclusions one draws from the Gemara’s prioritization of talmud Torah and mitzvah performance. The shiur engendered a lively discussion and each member of the kollel had the opportunity to speak with Rav Neuburger as he drew them into the analysis. In addition to their extra learning sedarim and private sessions with school administration, the Leadership Kollel continues to provide some of TABC’s rising stars with the opportunity to explore the most relevant issues with leading figures of our community.
