Celebrating
The 17th Siyum HaRambam
Lubavitcher
Chassidim around the world are celebrating the 17th Siyum HaRambam. The
cycle finishes Monday, the first day of Adar I. That is when the
traditional siyum will take place, near the Rambam’s tziyun in
Teveria.
The
grand Siyum HaRambam in Crown Heights will take place Thursday night in
Oholei Torah. There will be a special program for men, women and
children. Rabbi Shmuel Butman, director of the Vaad Siyumei HaRambam
HaOlami said that various gedolei Torah have promised to be in
attendance.
Many
shluchim plan to do widespread advertising of the event to enlist
more participation from the public at large in the study of Rambam.
