This summer is the third that Moshe Loew is spending at Beit Meir, but the first as a madrich on NCSY Kollel. Moshe, currently from somewhere in between Highland Park, NJ, and Beit Shemesh has spent the last two years at KBY, which followed his four-year career at MTA.
Moshe’s chaburah is a combination of extreme talent from three wildly different places. Dani Lieberman and Aharon (emphasis on the “ha”) Grossman are both from the Five Towns, attending DRS. Joey Eskenazi, from LA, attends YULA. And last, but certainly not least, our resident Israeli from Beit Shemesh, Ahron (one ‘a’) Gottlieb. Together, these four guys, have formed a formidable team, tackling anything and everything that comes their way as a chaburah.
The limmud this year is the Beis HaMikdash and Korbanos in lomdus and machshava. Whether we are learning about the intricacies of שחיטה or how the mishkan was the finishing touches on בריאת העולם, Aharon is making deep, insightful comments, while Dani is using his sense of humor to keep everyone involved. Joey’s contemplative nature and sense of calm keeps everyone grounded, as Ahron’s fiery passion brings a machlokes to life. Everyone’s analytical skills are developed as every source is seen inside, without compromising on logical thinking as debates between amoraim, rishonim, or achronim, are echoed by the members of the chaburah.
The Chaburah has already learned and grown so much together and can’t wait to capitalize on every moment that the home stretch of the summer has to offer.
