Learn Talmud - Berachot - Lesson 21 Daf 8a Part 1 (Koren Talmud Bavli) - Pray at a "Time of Finding"

Our page of Talmud discusses the importance of praying with a Minyan and if one cannot for any reason - there is another solution to be a part of the Minyan when not actually with the Minyan...



Who is the "evil neighbour" of a neighbourhood? The Gemara goes into further depth about being part of the community by taking a part in the prayers of the community - in the same place as they all pray.



Our page tells us how we should treat the privilege of being able to pray in a synagogue. It's not enough to just get oneself into the shul, but rather, one should enter a certain distance to show one's love for the place of worship one will be praying in. It shouldn't have to look like a burden.



The Gemara teaches us about the different types of women one can marry. There is a man who "finds a find!" and then there is a man who may find himself with a different type of marriage partner. Well - that's what they used to say in Israel in any case. Listen in to the Shiur to find out more!



The Gemara goes into some depth explaining the benefit of praying at a "time of finding". What exactly is it and when does it occur? There are various interpretations that are given. One such interpretation speaks about death and the different types of death that occur in the world.



There are other approaches taken to understanding this expression - each as wonderful as the next. But if you'd like to know the types of things we need to pray for - a "time of finding" - you'll need to listen in. There's certainly enough material here to really make us think about what prayer is all about and just how important it is to pray for all our needs!
