One of the gentlemen at shul came over to me and complimented how I'd lead PdZ, on Shabbos, and told me "I really liked your davening; you had a very Orthodox approach". I still don't know what that one means, especially considering that I was there, a 21 year old woman in a tallit. (in a shul where everyone else there until most of the way through that part of the service was male and over 65 years old.) Any ideas?

umm...


"orthodox" as in the way you went about things, not as in who you were going about things?

interesting comment...

I'm with a pretty orthodox group and I went wioth a friend to the big conservative shul in Jerusalem and it was so refreshing to be in that setting again.

Anyways, can you let me know what talmud book you used for kimmelman's class b/c I may just buy it here

thanks so much

I didn't take the class, actually. But Matt did: from what I've seen that he has, you need the first volume of Stensaltz's Hebrew edition of Masekhet Sanhedrin, and the Steinsaltz Talmud reference/guide/whatever it's called. I'm not sure what else. But having a copy of Jastrow couldn't hurt, or either of the Frank books.
