This afternoon (12/16/20 at YBT), after a Chanukah break, we resumed our bekius learning of the Rambam's Hilchos Chanukah. We read through the halachos of Hallel, which raised quite a few eyebrows - especially when we saw what the Rambam's Hallel looks like in the Rambam Siddur. We got about halfway through the halachos of Neiros Chanukah and should have no trouble finishing tomorrow (barring any power outages from the snow storm that just started).

Bekius Disclaimer:
Note that this is a bekius chavurah - as opposed to an iyun shiur. Each session consists of us reading through the Rambam's writings together without much preparation on my part, and without going into depth by consulting commentaries or primary sources. For all these reasons, there are bound to be inaccuracies, errors, and other types of shortcomings which would not be acceptable in a prepared shiur, but are quite typical of a bekius chavurah. Please bear this in mind, and know what you're signing up for when you listen!
