חַבְרוּתָא אוֹ מִיתוּתָא – Either a Chevruta Partner or Death What makes learning come alive? Join us as we explore one of the Talmud's most compelling stories—the extraordinary relationship between Rabbi Yochanan and Resh Lakish—and discover why the rabbis taught: "Either a chevruta partner (study buddy) or death" (Bava Metzia 84a). Together, we'll reflect on companionship, disagreement, friendship, and the transformative power of learning in dialogue. Through paired study (chevruta) and open discussion, we'll ask what it means to seek truth with another person. What it is: An interactive Beit Midrash session and the launch of Hillel Deutschland's new Open Beit Midrash format. No prior knowledge is required— just bring your curiosity.
