COLlive.com presents Parsha Lomdus, a weekly in-depth shiur focusing on the halachic elements discussed within the Parsha. The shiur covers 4-5 different topics throughout the Parsha and each topic/segment is between 7-10 minutes. The material is taken from the works of the Achronim with a special focus on lomdus.
The shiur is given by Rabbi Sholom Kesselman, West Coast Food Service Administrator at OK Kosher. He was raised in Johannesburg, South Africa and learned at the Rabbinical College of Canada in Montreal. He served as a Maggid Shiur in Yeshiva Ohr Elchonon Chabad in Los Angeles and principal of the Junior High School at Cheder Menachem of Los Angeles. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife and children.
