Take One

Shekalim 12 and 13

In today’s Daf Yomi pages, honoring our teachers even as we disappoint them

April 2, 2021

Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Shekalim 12 and 13, deliver a beautiful passage of admiration to our educators, particularly poignant as it acknowledges that no matter how dedicated the teacher, we students are bound to disappoint. Rabbi Benji Levy joins us to talk about Jewish education, and the hard-earned wisdom he’d acquired as a young principal of a day school. How do you create an ecosystem that enables and encourages kids to thrive? Listen and find out.
