Sepharadi approach to Talmud Torah in the writings of Hakham Yosef Faur (1934-2020)

Part 1 in our series "Insights from our Hakhamim with the students of The Habura."

Yonatan Rahmani is a Jewish educator based in NYC, and serves as the inaugural Rabbinic Fellow for SAMi (Sephardic American Mizrahi Initiative). He hopes to act as a connector for those who are seeking meaning in their lives, and to draw ‘am Yisrael closer to Tora, ultimately bringing them closer to Hashem. Yonatan is happiest when cooking, learning Tora, hosting guests for Shabbat, and spending time with his family.

Great shiur! Only thing is for those of us who are adult converts or later ba'ale teshuvah, it can feel like we're so extremely behind and feel discouraging, at least for me personally, if i hold off on Gemara until mastering Mikra, Mishna, and Sifre Halakha. Perhaps it depends on the circumstances? I agree for born Jews raised with Torah, follow Hakham Faur's seder limud makes sense
