Los Angeles: 22 Bochurim of YOEC Will Be Tested Live
Live at 7:00 PM ET: 22 Bochurim from Yeshivas Or Elchonon Chabad Prepare for Major Farher After Mastering the Entire Maseches Bava Kamma Baal Peh.
by COLlive Editor · COLliveIt is well known how much Nachas the Rebbe had when hearing about Bochurim Learning a Masechta Baal Peh and Ibergegebenkeit – devotion to learning. The Rebbe said countless times that the whole Tafkid – job and purpose of a Bochur is Limmud Hatorah.
In a remarkable display of hasmada and passion for Limud HaTorah, 22 bochurim from Yeshiva Ohr Elchonon Chabad (YOEC) in Los Angeles have accomplished an extraordinary feat: they have learned the entire Maseches Bava Kamma baal peh—by heart—over the course of the past year, and are now preparing for an official farher before a panel of esteemed rabbonim.
This ambitious project, which demanded unwavering focus, daily consistency, and tremendous Chayus, is now reaching its climax. The upcoming farher will test the bochurim on both their fluency in the Hemshech Hasugyos and understanding, of the nearly 112 daf that comprise Maseches Bava Kamma.
The 22 participants in this exceptional accomplishment are:
Menachem M Gancz (Shiur Alef)
Yehuda Kalman Marlow
Shneur Z Oster
Moshe Rosenberg
Menachem Silverman
Zvi Wolf
Menachem M. Gancz (Shiur Beis)
Tzvi Gassman
Tani Geisinsky
Mendel Gottlieb
Aaron Karnowsky
Shmuel Kotlarsky
Yehuda Moss
Sholom Perlstein
Shlomo Aharon Posner
Dovber Raeburn
Levi Rav-Noy
Shmuel Rosenfeld
Nechemiah Segal
Menachem Sheinberger
Berel Silberberg
Moshe Spalter
Each of these bochurim has shown extraordinary hasmada, dedicating hours each day to learning and reviewing the Masechta. The sight of Bochurim sitting and ‘Horeving’ over the whole Masechta has been nothing short of inspiring.
A Project of the YOEC Zal Shluchim
On the 17th of Teives 5738 (1978) the first group of Talmidim Hashuchim had a unique Yechidus with the Rebbe. The Rebbe emphasized that the goal of the Yeshivah to be a Migdal Ohr – a light tower, to illuminate the entire city of Los Angeles through Neir Mitzvah V’torah Ohr.
The Shluchim Of YOEC live by this vision and strong desire of the Rebbe. Being a good role model themselves as well as by arranging special programs helping Bochurim strengthen their Limmud Hatorah and Kiyum Hamitzvos.
This initiative was spearheaded and guided by the dedicated Zal Shluchim. With passion and dedication, they built a structure that kept the bochurim motivated and organized, and offered constant encouragement along the way.
The shluchim created an environment of serious learning and built the framework for the energy and passion to last all year.
