Today’s Daf Yomi page, Rosh Hashanah 18, reminds us that studying Talmud is a pursuit that contains multitudes. Martin Gaynor, a survivor of the Tree of Life shooting in Pittsburgh, joins us to tell the story of how he and a fellow survivor decided to start studying Daf Yomi to honor the memory of their friend, Jerry Rabinowitz, who was murdered in the attack. How does reading one page of Talmud a day helps keep the memory of a beloved fallen friend alive? Listen and find out.
