Good lecturer Dr Abramson - Yasher Koach I listened via The Internet here in far flung distant Australia. The Chida TZL was known to be a "Meshulaich ' Charity collector for the Jews of Yerushalim (Jerusalem). By Tradition we have the story that whilst travelling around the various Jewish Communities and writing receipts for the Tzedoka Charity he collected The Chida TZL also wrote Torah Chiddushim. The Chida TZL also checked out different older Jewish manuscripts, some of them held in various communities and libraries.
I did a stint as a charity collector. So some of the experiences shared in this video resonated with me. I remember one time I knocked on some apartment doors looking for someone specific. The man who opened the door was in his underwear and took my collections from me and tried unsuccessfully to climb out of the apartment window. It turned out the person who I was looking for had moved and the block of apartments had been converted into housing for the local mental hospital. I did get my collections back thankfully. I look forward to finding other personal points of connection to the Chida. Thanks again Professor.
Very interesting - never heard of the Chidah - very lively insight into distant times. Also liked the summary of the history of the Sephardic diaspora. I remember years ago making the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela (I’m not Jewish or Catholic but it’s allowed) coming to a village in the middle of nowhere and being given an impromptu tour by a local who pointed to a street and said “that’s where the Jews lived” as if they’d left left yesterday not over five hundred years ago. Ghosts haunting Spain - maybe now old wrongs are being righted.
Thanks for the amazing lecture , my highlight reading the מעגלטוב was the encounter of the Chida with R’ Yehoshua Falk the holy Pnei Yehoshua and his wife Sarah , where she chimed in to the dvar Torah and he said ״ כל אשר תאמר שרה שמע בקולה , And when hen he told the Pnei Yehoshua that his Chidusim are studied in “ארץ. צבי
From a reliable source I heard that at the Hida's reburial in Har Hamnuhot, Harav Eliyahu asked at the coffin "Please organize yourself" noise of moving bones were heard.
To continue my own series: Sepharadic Rabbis and his Brazilian descendents (lol) here he comes -- Daniel Azulay. One of the most famous cartoonists of the 80's. I also have taken some classes on that topic with him, and I can tell he is a very good guy. th-cam.com/video/1q6oq7NdURs/w-d-xo.html
I just bought my softcover Berkowitz Chok L'Yisrael! its amazing! I was surprised that two sections aren't translated, the Zohar section and the Bartenura Mishna commentary, and the last Friday portion from Tetsaveh had a Haftorah from Ezekiel only in Hebrew for some reason. It makes me feel like I've taken my Torah study to the next level with this classic lectionary. Its like I don't have to be plug into a scholarly curriculum or be learn Hebrew and Aramaic overnight to be a daily student of Talmud and Zohar (chabad.org has the English Chok Zohar portion).
Is the app with a miracle a day still available? Do you know what it is called? Also are there any translations of the Chidas travel diaries in English or just in Hebrew? Thanks to anyone who replies
53:00 did use nigiry as being. Shunafha a kassa I had respect and was shocked to here you be so racist. You can apologize if u choose may be you can learn something you did not know about yourself un know? I’m lover of your channel and programs on Jewish history
Did any converso communities keep the kehilla structure in a Christian congregational context? Would they have even been allowed to do so even if they wanted to? Any converso kehilla advocate leaders? Or did womens chevrot survive, readapted to Christian charity?
I'm from the Marranos of Spain. My family ended up in Puerto Rico. No congregational context just the family marrying between cousins and second cousins. But I did have the opportunity to travel to Belmonte where a village would send kids to seminary in order to have priests of their own to keep the church away.
Listening to these lectures is a MUST in my day. Thank you so much Dr Ambramson.
Glad you found the lectures useful!
Thank you for all your lectures. So much information and so enjoyable..

You missed one of his names. R' Haim YOSEF David Azoulay
Hayez painted a portrait of him, titled Levite Ephraim
Interesting

He told a non-Jew non-Idolater to say the Shema and keep from shituf.
18 minutes in and not a word about the Chida
