Natan Slifkin

May 5, 2015

I will be in the US and available as scholar-in-residence for the first three weeks in August. If you'd like to arrange something, please write to me.

If you live in South Africa, you may be interested to join me at the Mizrachi shul on Shabbos May 29/30.

Closer to home, next Wednesday evening I will be speaking at KSYM in Modi'in at 8pm, on the animal kingdom in Jewish thought.

Meanwhile, if you haven't yet read Rabbi Yitzchok Adlerstein's essay about OU kashrus, I recommend that you do so!

The picture on the right is not connected to any of this. But it's a cool animal that I used in a lecture in Boca Raton a few years ago. Ten points if you can identify it.
