I am writing a chabura and need ideas. it is for next week, which is the week before shavous
ChatGPT can give you the whole thing.
So you’re not writing a chabura yet. You have noone in real life to talk to?
so you’re not “writing a chabura”. get someone in real life to talk to.
You can look into whether Shavuos had 2 days in the days of Abaye and Rava, and why we have two days if by that time they would have surely heard when Rosh Chodesh Nissan was. Did מנהג אבותיכם change this into a לא פלוג concept of יום טוב שני or was it accepted later, once there was no קידוש בבית דין at all anywhere?
Any inyan?
What’s the difference between מלאכה שאינה צריכה לגופה and פסיק רישא דלא ניחא ליההאם ביטול תורה הוא מצות חיובי בכל עת אלא שפטור בשעה שעוסק בצרכיו או אינו חייב בת”ת אלא בשעה שפנוי מעסקיו
מה החילוק בין עשה דוחה ל” ת למצוה הבאה בעבירה
האם ת”ח קדוש מספר תורה או להיפך?
עי קידושין ל” ג: בר”ן ופני יהושעAny inyan?

עי קידושין ל” ג: בר”ן ופני יהושעYasher koach. I went to one last night, and I think the topic is spot on. We all learn so much, but we have fewer opportunities to actually integrate what we learn. A chabura is the perfect place to take one idea and find practical ways to make Torah become lived inside each person.
For example, we all know that Hashem is One. Intellectually, it’s a fact. Experientially… we don’t feel it viscerally. A chabura can come up with ways to practice that integration. Meditation is one way — thinking about how Hashem is speaking all of reality into existence, and how His speech never leaves Him. Take one item in the room and imagine Hashem speaking it into existence and it being one with Hashem. During the week, people can commit to practicing with other created, finite things — even themselves — and realizing that everything is one with the One.
Another idea is eating. Eating is something through which we serve Hashem externally with brachos, but the feeling of connection is often small or not present at all. I don’t know if we can put links here, but there is a book on Amazon that’s a practical guide to deepening one’s avodah through eating. It has many exercises, and your chabura can take one each week. The book is called “10 Steps to Eat as a Jew: The Path Back to Gan Eden.”
Jewish breathing is another great way to bring our learning to life. Rabbi YY Jacobson has a couple of videos explaining how to breathe with Hashem. Eliyahu Pereira has a whole series on it. Rabbi Pinson also has a book with breathing exercises called Breathing and Quieting the Mind.
Hatzlachah!
I think focusing on the integration of what we all know is good for a chabura. Try focusing on eating as an avoda. You can use the book 10 Steps to Eat as a Jew. Also Jewish breathing is awesome, Rabbi YY has a couple of shiurim on it as does Eliyahu Pereira.
He’s asking here because we are also real life people, but there happens to be a screen between us.
Maybe it’s convenience
Maybe it’s other things..
That’s not. Your business.how about the different opinions of the poskim about mitzvas yishuv eretz yisroel bizman hazeh. is it a mitzva if so is it d’oraisa or d’rabannan. what is included in the mitzva and so on.
another good option is checking out the olamot website for ideas.How about the sugya of מקום הניחו לי להתגדר בו
OOPS – Sorry, I wrote about it already…
