Women and Torah Study


1) Listen to this morning's class, on the topic of HaRambam's approach to women's Torah study, here. Follow along with the source sheet here.


2) There is a lot of written material on this topic - I suggest the brief and well-presented article of Warren Zev Harvey, "The Obligation of Talmud on Women According to Maimonides." Read it here.

See, as well, Lawrence Kaplan's brief analysis in his short monograph of Hilkhot Talmud Torah here.


3) The issue of women's study of Torah has been the focus of several recent articles at Lehrhaus. Read them here.
