Iyun learning on Sanhedrin
Rabbi Baruch Reis teaches iyun shiurim on Maseches Sanhedrin — the "iyun" signaling in-depth study rather than a quick pass. His recorded classes, such as Sanhedrin Daf 76, Daf 77, and Daf 78 Iyun, move carefully through the Gemara, weighing the arguments and the commentaries with real precision.
Iyun learning slows down where a fast shiur speeds up. It lingers on a difficulty, tests a Tosafos, and follows the logic of the sugya to its root. That is the terrain Rabbi Reis works in: methodical, analytical Gemara study aimed at genuine understanding of how a sugya holds together.
What Maseches Sanhedrin covers
Sanhedrin, part of Seder Nezikin, is the tractate of the courts. It deals with the Jewish judiciary — how batei din are formed, how judges rule, and the laws of both civil and capital cases — making it foundational for understanding Torah law and justice.
It is also home to famous aggadic material, most notably Perek Chelek, which discusses the World to Come and the fundamentals of Jewish faith. A serious iyun shiur on Sanhedrin therefore ranges across both the legal machinery of the Torah and some of its deepest questions of belief.
In-depth review, daf by daf
The daf-by-daf structure suits learners who want depth over coverage. Rather than racing to finish the masechta, Rabbi Reis takes the sugyos one at a time, so a listener can truly work a page — its question, its resolution, and the give-and-take of the Rishonim.
This makes his shiurim a strong fit for those with some Gemara background looking to sharpen their skills on a specific masechta. Sanhedrin rewards that kind of patience, and an in-depth series is exactly the setting in which its intricate sugyos open up.
