Length: 1 hour 15 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (6/9/23), in our Machshavah Lab series for women, we attempted to answer as many of the questions we raised last time as possible. This time we focused on the approach of the Ralbag - well, at least, the approach we managed to tease out of the few comments where addressed our questions. What emerged was a more nuanced view of portrait of the nazir than what many of us previously knew. I had PLANNED to also give shiur on the Sforno's approach, but decided to leave that for another time (בג"ה)!

And with that, the last Machshavah Lab shiur is in the books! Looking forward to continuing in the fall, God willing!
