Description

The Eruv seems to bring along with it enormous controversy. Community after community fights over the existing Eruv, many not understanding what they're fighting about. In this class we discuss the theory behind the Eruv, statements by Rishonim and Achronim on the importance of building an Eruv, and the basic mechanics of how the Eruv works.
