  • The East Side Torah Center 317 Henry Street NYC 10002 212-473-1000 Learning Torah Has Never Been Easier!
    Featuring thousands of interesting tapes, CDs, and videos by the most dynamic speakers in America and Israel today… Our main library is located at: The East Side Torah Center 317 Henry Street NYC 10002 212-473-1000 Learning Torah Has Never Been Easier! Dear Friend, Every morning and evening we recite in the Shema , "And you shall speak them while you sit in your house, while you go on the way..." This of course refers to the mitzvah of learning Torah. Each weekday we hop in our cars, ride the bus or subway, or walk to and from work. We go shopping, do laundry, or bake a cake. Why not make better or additional use of that time? Why not hear some of the best Maggidei Shiur lecture on Loshon Hara, Emunah, or the Parsha of the week? Not only will you gain chizuk and get the mitzvah of Limud HaTorah, but those hours of drudgery will go by a lot faster. As most of you know, the Lower East Side has an extensive, free Torah Tape Library. We have tapes for men, women, and children from all backgrounds and all ages, on various topics including Halacha, Yom Tov, Hashkafa, Tanach, Chinuch, Marriage, and more, by popular Jewish speakers like Rabbi Yissochor Frand, Rabbi Avigdor Miller, Rabbi Paysach Krohn, Rebbetzin Faige Twerski, Rabbi Yitzchok Kirzner... The list goes on and on! The latest index contains many exciting updates. We have recently expanded to include CDs— among them the entire Mishnah elucidated by Rabbi Nosson Scherman, and a complete collection of Daf Yomi shiurim—and video cassettes from the likes of Rabbi Amnon Yitzchak.

  • Exploring Religious Jewish Online Discourse
    NEW MEDIA IN THE JEWISH BEDROOM: EXPLORING RELIGIOUS JEWISH ONLINE DISCOURSE CONCERNING GENDER AND SEXUALITY A Dissertation by RUTH TSURIA Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Heidi A. Campbell Committee Members, Tasha Dubriwny Claire Katz Cara Wallis Head of Department, Kevin Barge August 2017 Major Subject: Communication Copyright 2017 Ruth Tsuria ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the construction and negotiation of gender and sexuality in Jewish Orthodox online discourse. It explores how religious concepts of gender and negotiation were communicated online, and how they were supported or resisted by users and website authors. My approach conceptualizes online digital communication as a Foucauldian discourse, in which power and resistance operate. To understand this discourse, scholars have to consider both the digital affordances and the religious worldviews that inform that discourse. For that purpose, I consider three layers of the religious digital discourse: 1) the technological aspects, 2) the religious/cultural aspects, and 3) the discursive strategies. Three websites were selected (on the basis of popularity) to represent the Orthodox online discourse: Chabad.org, Aish.com and Kipa.co.il. From these websites various texts regarding gender and sexuality were sampled: questions and answers (Q&A); website articles; and videos. A total of n=60 Q&A, n=48 articles and videos, and n=1184 comments were sampled and analyzed. The material was divided into two chapters: one chapter focusing on practices, and the other chapter focusing on meaning making.

Rabbi Oratz was an unassuming, yet foundational pillar of Yeshiva University. He lived, breathed, and embodied the r.r,ords of the Torah, radiating its light to those who merited knowing him. Born in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, Rabbi Oratz attended MTA high school and there- after received a B.A. with a major in English from Yeshiva College. He continued his education at Bernard Revel Graduate School and received his smicha from RIETS. Already beginning in his early teens, he dedicated his life to the teaching of Torah. ln addition to his position at Stern College for Women, which he held for over thirtyyears, Rabbi Oratz was on the faculty of Shulamith High School for Girls, Camp Morasha, and se.,eral other schools, as well. In his liletime, he undoubtedly learned Torah with tens of thousands of students. His uniquely soft-spoken, yet passionate tone delivered the Torah's messages in a way that penetrated his listeners' hearts and minds. Rabbi Oratz passed away on September 9,2009,leaving an eternal legacy to his family, colleagues, and students.
