A series, not a single speaker
B'himatzo gathers about thirty recorded shiurim under one title. It is best treated as a named series rather than as a biography of a single lecturer, since what unites the recordings is the shared name, not a documented individual.
With no speaker, location, or fixed curriculum recorded here, the most honest thing to point to is the series itself — a set of shiurim collected under a single, meaningful heading.
The meaning of the name
The name comes from a verse in Yeshayahu (55:6): "Dirshu Hashem b'himatzo, kra'uhu bihyoso karov" — "Seek Hashem when He is found; call upon Him when He is near." It is one of the best-known calls to teshuvah in all of Tanach.
Chazal (Rosh Hashanah 18a) apply that verse to the Aseres Yemei Teshuvah, the ten days from Rosh Hashanah through Yom Kippur, taught as a time when closeness to Hashem is especially within reach.
Approaching the series
A title drawn from that verse sets a tone of drawing near — of seeking and calling out — even before a single word is heard. It frames the collection as one meant to bring a listener closer rather than merely to inform.
Beyond the name, the recordings speak for themselves. The soundest way to know any single shiur in the series is to listen to it, letting the content rather than a summary set expectations.
