The Talmud is the foundational text of Judaism — every law, every debate, every dissenting opinion preserved across 2,711 pages. For centuries it was accessible only to scholars. That is changing.

Rabbanit Michelle Farber is the founder of Hadran and the host of Daf Yomi for Women, the first and only women’s daily Daf Yomi podcast. From her dining room table in Israel, she has built a worldwide movement — bringing daily Talmud study into the lives of thousands of women and men from all backgrounds.

The story of how the Talmud went from the study halls of the few to the daily lives of the many is a story of extraordinary breakthroughs — from Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi writing down the Mishnah, to Rabbi Meir Shapiro’s Daf Yomi, to ArtScroll and Koren making the text accessible in English, to Rabbanit Farber’s own work opening the Talmud to women around the world.

In this episode of Jewish Insights with Justin Pines, Rabbanit Farber shares her personal journey, what listeners can expect from her daily shiur, how Hadran has grown into a full ecosystem of women’s Talmud learning, and why now is the time to start. She also teaches Justin some Talmud!

A new Daf Yomi journey begins June 8, 2027. Whether you’ve never opened a Gemara or you’ve been learning for years, this episode is for you.
