To write and publish the ''Halacha Brura & Birur Halacha'' compendium to the Talmud according to the vision of the late Rabbi A.I. Kook, and to encourge it's method of study throught the public at large.
What makes this project so unique? Not only the material it contains, but the manner in which it is presented. The project has two parts: A) Extensive and complex research: We have systematically researched every legal decision, page by page, explaining all opinions and arguments of the various commentaries. This leads to the deepest understanding of Jewish law, and how it developed throughout the different eras (Rishonim, Ahronim, etc.). Our research puts an emphasis not only on what they say but also on how the laws were derived from their Talmudic sources according to the different commentaries. All this material is summarized in the clearest way for those interested in the study of Talmud.
B) At the bottom of each page, we have inserted the “Psak Halacha” (the legal decision) of the Shulchan Aruch and Rambam (Maimonides), for each and every discussion brought down. In this way, we manage to stimulate the curiosity as to the practical conclusions reached in each discussion.
