Yeshiva Darchai Menachem – Gemara Competition

Crown Heights, Brooklyn — Tuesday marked the end of an intensive three weeks in Chazering over the Gemara that was learned throughout the entire year. The chazara was done with the goal in mind to be able to repeat as many lines of Gemara over a single time period in a clear fashion. All in all 5000 lines were repeated over the three week period. A Kinus was held at the school where Rabbi Tennenbaum tested the students. “I am thoroughly impressed with their efforts and accomplishments says Rabbi Tennenbaum.

“Over the course of the year a student can work hard and diligently, covering a lot of ground. But that does not mean he remembers everything he has learned. When a student is able to chazer a lengthy amount of Gemara over one time period, the quality of his learning changes and he is able to retain the clarity and flow of the Gemara In his future learning.” Says Principal Rabbi Bension.

We would like to give a yasher koach to the students who were able to repeat the entire perek. They are Yisroel Pruss, Itamar Antion and Mendy Sternbach. Special mention goes to S.Z. Gottleib for Learning it shakla vtarya.
