    To Berel:

    My point is that this is not the first article I’ve seen on this website giving pictures about a shiur on Birchas ha’Chama but no content of the shiur is in the article. I’d like to learn more about Birchas ha’Chama, but didn’t attend the shiurim, finding out about them only afterwards on this website. So then wouldn’t it be nice if, for those like myself, the article would repeat a bit of the shiur content too, and not simply show pictures of heilich rabonim and bachurim?

    It’s funny, the RAMBAM himself explicitly states that when the Gemara makes assertions regarding astronomy, it’s based on the science of the day and not a mesorah, but this guy goes around teaching astronomy based on the RAMBAM and says it’s a mesorah!

    Does anyone else see what’s going on here?

    What?

    Rabbi Losh explains why and what happens every 28 years. Wether you go according to Torah’s opinion (Sun moves) or seculer view-was also the opinion of many great rabbis in prevoius two centuries- (world moves,) it has NO effect on the halachic equinox, which is why we make the blessing every 28 years.

    The issue at hand is whether a year is exactly 365.25 days as Shmuel’s opinion (Julian calendar), Rav Ada (a few minutes less), or calendar used today (Gregorian Calendar-almost 11 minutes less).

    Also, our tradition is that the world was created in Tishrai (27 Elul) and not in Nissan (25 Adar).

    It will be nice to have something written up for us layman and to explain the pictures.
