About Shu"T First, Ask Questions Later

Shu"T First, Ask Questions Later puts the study of Torah front-and-center by inviting guest scholars to present, debate and provide listeners with a dynamic conversation of the topic at hand. In addressing the responsum of their choice, they will be asked to provide relevant historical background, distill the halachic/social considerations, offer unique methodological insights, and make an argument for its relevance today.

   91. The Chassidic Theory of Time Relativity - Feat. Rabbi Bezalel Naor

   We have the privilege of being joined by Rabbi Bezalel Naor, author of The Project of Hasidism (Kodesh Press), in order to take a more careful look at the Chassidic approach to zmanim. We take a look at Sha'agas Aryeh (no. 15) among several other responsa that help us get to the bottom of how the prescribed times for prayer and time-bound commandments, for many, became negotiable.
