The 13th Global Siyum Hashas of Daf YomiAgudath Israel of America.

[shaulyaakov]

I left after the dancing but it should be noted that only one speech was in Yiddish to that point.

I would also comment that there are women who learn as well, whether daf yomi or otherwise, with the blessing of Talmidei Chachamim, and even if the Aguda doesn't want to publically recognize that reality, they would be wise to at least tone down the "wives of learners" rhetoric.

will you ever not be critical?

I'm not critical. The event was incredible. I like the Waldo guy

It's a much bigger mitzvah to be "wives of learners" than a woman who learns.

Is that actually brought down that ishto kegufo applies here? We don't say that a man can eat double matzah for his wife.

[shaulyaakov]

Also there are many unmarried women who learn. So that should count.

Rabbi Gold is pure gold.

I missed it. Had to leave by the dancing. I thought Rabbi Schiff from Antwerp spoke really really well. Covered all bases. What did Rabbi Gold speak about? Which Rabbi Gold is this?

The call in line kept prompting me to push a number. Happened like 6 times during his speech.

Rabbi Yoel Gold. He didn’t go up to the dais. He stood surrounded by the heroes of his inspirational story.

I think the point of all those speeches was that the wife gets schar for the husband's learning...

Maybe, but still a bigger compliment and more important to be "wives of learners".

Thanks. I guess I'll watch the rest of the siyum that I missed. It was really beautiful.

[mmgfarb]

Incredible! But I found some guys treating it like a sports game? Waiving your hands to the camera?

Don't you find it beautiful that this is our "sports game"?

The guy was singing Ani maamim right after the tribute to the kedoshim and the guys in bleachers behind him or waiving like showing up on a sports screen.

Yeah I'm a little sensitive.. I get it, it's a big simcha

Is it possible these kids never went to a baseball game and are really excited?

Not am excuse and disgusting but nevertheless a possibility.
