New Sefer Bain Hashuroth at the YU Seforim Sale

ספר בין השורות contains halakhic discussions on the weekly parsha based upon the commentary of the Ramban, Rambam, and later commentators. The author, Rabbi Avrohom Ratner, strives to highlight the relationship between the Written and Oral Torahs. The sefer includes a haskama from Rav Hershel Schachter.

The sefer is available for purchase at the YU Seforim Sale or by contacting the author directly at [email protected]. Rabbi Ratner will be giving a lecture on the topic of “Are Matches Really Made in Heaven?: The Rambam’s Understanding of Bashert” at the Seforim Sale on Sunday, February 20th, at 12 P.M. (Event link).
