Transistor (https://transistor.fm) https://feeds.transistor.fm/mishna-outlined Mishna Outlined offers a structured approach to learning Mishna, helping listeners see the bigger picture of each Masechta. We begin by mapping out the Masechta's major sections and subsections, highlighting how its topics fit together. We then explore each section in depth, examining the Mishnayos and their commentaries while continually connecting the details to the broader structure. The goal is not simply to understand each Mishna individually, but to appreciate where it fits, how the Mesechta develops and ultimately forms a unified whole. © 2026 Rabbi Moshe Rothman b6afc960-0fb6-50dc-93c1-9f9a1d12ef1a yes en Sun, 25 Oct 2026 15:00:43 -0400 Sun, 25 Oct 2026 15:01:35 -0400 https://torahcasts.com https://img.transistorcdn.com/maMCBHVsB3Rp0NluV7M9vzySgcXVsHFs7YamOAJvkdo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:1400/h:1400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS81M2Zj/YjU4YjgzNDhiYWE4/Nzc4NWVlOTBmNzA3/M2E4My5wbmc.jpg https://torahcasts.com episodic Rabbi Moshe Rothman Mishna Outlined offers a structured approach to learning Mishna, helping listeners see the bigger picture of each Masechta.
