The Process of Outreach - Rabbi Zev Leff

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Dovid Orlofsky’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

You are uh all here, I assume, because uh you want to uh be involved in kiruv in some way. But, there are conditions how that's possible, as Rabbi Bloom hinted to at the end, that uh Or Lagolah was created to give one the tools to be able to uh be a person who's involved in kiruv. The Mishnah gives certain other conditions that have to be fulfilled before you can be mekarev people. Hillel Omer, have a mitameed of Shel Aaron, Ohev Shalom, the Rodef Shalom, Ohev et Habriyos, and only after all of that, mekarvin laTorah. And then you can be mekarev. First, you have to be a talmid of Aaron. You have to be an Ohev Shalom and a Rodef Shalom, and an Ohev et Habriyos. Thought it would be a good idea to explain what those conditions are, in order that you should be able to fulfill the end of that Mishnah of Mekarvin laTorah. Also, why do you have to be a talmid of Aaron? He will just sort of said you should be always Shalom and Rodef Shalom. And always have real and then you can make people that told what do you have to be a talent of Aaron? Now the answer is that there are many ways of being an always Shalom and a Rodef Shalom. And an always have real. But you need to be a talent of Aaron to know how to do those things properly and how to approach them properly. Because all of those things can be distorted. Aaron was a coin Godel. Now coin Godel could have been called coin Haroshi. Coin Harosh. Why coin Godel? Aaron was Zoha to the title Godel. Moshe Rabbeinu also was Zoha to the title of Godel.
