Avos 5:21 - Pirkei Avos: On Turning Forty

Length: 1 hour 27 minutes
Synopsis: This evening (1/4/24), in our Thursday night Pirkei Avos shiur for women, we took a break from the mishnah we've been working on to do something timely. Next week is my 40th birthday, and whenever I reach a numerical milestone like that, I like to revisit the mishnah in Pirkei Avos about the different ages of our lives. Tonight we read through the entire mishnah but focused on the ages of 20, 30, 40, and 50. In addition to the ideas we learned about those specific clauses, we also gained insight into the mishnah as a whole.
