Remarks from Siyyum on Masechet Makkot

Rabbi David Yisrael Kalmus – This video is Rabbi Kalmus Siyyum which is a celebration for a completion of learning a tractate of Talmud (which could take months of intense learning). It usually includes reciting the last couple verses in the Talmud section and expounding upon it.

Personal Thoughts – The video has some very powerful global ideas about the concept that we have to fall (sometimes quite hard) before we rise – that the fall itself predicts the rise (so its actually a positive). My experience in my own life reflects this concept so I really identified strongly with his Siyyum talk.
