Shabbos/Shabbaton Schedule (A Congregation Toras Chaim Shabbaton with Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Poupko of Jerusalem | Shabbos Parshas Beshalach, February 4, 2012 | Everyone is invited.)

Friday Night, February 3rd

• Candlelighting– 5:44 PM
• 5:45 PM Davening/15 min speech: The Dual Dimension of Divine Deliverance. This brief talk shows that from the Burning Bush to the Splitting of the Sea the redemption progressed along two continua, Divine Providence and human free will.

Shabbos Day, February 4th

• 8:30 AM Shabbos Morning Davening/Kiddush/Speech: Moshe and Aharon: What they Share and Where they Differ. The distinct responsibilities of Moshe and Aharon in the Egyptian exodus, determine their respective roles in the transmission of Torah. This talk also clarifies the concept of “Kehuna” as well as the essential differences between “Torah Shebichtav” (written Torah) and “Torah Sheb’al Peh” (oral Torah).
• 4:15 PM Speech: The Miniature Matan Torah & Jethro’s Jewdiciousness. The Miniature Matan Torah at Marah combines with Yisro to prepare us for Revelation at Sinai. The culminating chapters of Maimonides’ “Guide of the Perplexed” illuminate the dialogue and disagreement between Moshe and Yisro preceding the giving of the Torah and clarify the Rambam’s view of interpersonal ethics.
• 5:15 PM Mincha/Shalosh Seudos/Speech: Foreknowledge and Free Will. Maimonides’ view of the seeming conflict between Divine foreknowledge and human free will in the Mishnah Torah & The Guide of the Perplexed may well shed light on the epoch ordeal of Yoseph HaTzadik.
• Shabbos Ends–6:45 PM followed by Kiddush Levana
• Avos U’Banim: Father/Son Learning–8:15 PM
