Lecture Announcement – R. Yechiel Goldhaber – January 4, 2018

EDIT 1.4.2018:
Unfortunately due to the inclement weather this lecture has been canceled. An update will be posted it that changes.

The readership of the Seforim Blog is invited to a lecture by the noted author, Rav Yechiel Goldhaber (link), whose respected research and scholarship is well-known to Seforim Blog readers. 

The shiur will be taking place Thursday, January 4, 7:30 PM at Khal Bnei Avrohom Yaakov, 2701 Avenue N, Brooklyn, NY. Rabbi Goldhaber’s speech will be delivered in English. The subject of this shiur is  “A New source in understanding the Chasam Sofer and Metzitza B’peh.”

This lecture is dedicated לזכר נשמת the late Dr. Shlomo Sprecher ז״ל who coordinated and hosted many of Rabbi Goldhaber’s shiurim, and wrote an important article in Hakirah on the subject of the shiur (link).

Rabbi Goldhaber has authored many wonderful articles, published important documents and written works on a wide range of topics, among them Minhagei Kehilos about customs, Kunditon (link), on the topics of the Titanic, and the so-called Cherem on Spain, as well as two volumes of Ginzei Yehuda, a collection of assorted letters from various rabbis of note.
