Shalom friends! This week’s parsha is Pinchas, starring proto-feminist NAMED heroines of the Torah, Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah who filed a Title IX complaint with Moses about misogynistic inheritance laws! Please enjoy my illustration of them ☺️

Shalom friends! As we head into this final year of this Daf Yomi cycle, I’m excited to share two new initiatives your gift will help make possible:

1. The Daf Yomi Survival Guide 🧭
A new workshop for communities preparing for the next Daf Yomi cycle. Think of it as a collection of flotation devices for navigating the “Sea of Talmud,” complete with best practices, key terminology, memorable milestones, and hilariously hard-earned lessons from my own Daf Yomi voyage to help keep you on trac(tate!).

I’m fairly confident that no matter how many speakers you’ve heard talk about Talmud at your shul, temple, or JCC, you’ve never had a scholar-in-residence (or, as I prefer, a nerd-in-residence) do it quite like this! 😁 (Link to find out more and book me jewishspeakersbureau.com/speakers/miriam-anzovin)

2. The Library of Daf Reactions 📚
One of the core missions of Daf Reactions is the democratization of Jewish learning. Over the years, I’ve often recommended books and resources that members of this community have wanted to engage with, but couldn’t easily access due to cost or availability.

To help address that, I’m thrilled to be working on The Library of Daf Reactions (or, as I’ll be affectionately calling it, TLDR, hehe) a new initiative created in collaboration with Rabbi Arthur Gould, who shares a deep commitment to this work.

TLDR is designed to connect learners with the books and resources they need to continue their Jewish learning journeys, making access a little more possible and a lot more communal.

More details, including ways to support and utilize the library, will be coming soon!

Reminder that thanks to an incredible Jewish organization that believes in Daf Reactions, donations toward the current fundraiser will be matched through June 30!

Your support sustains not only the videos, but a growing community of Jewish discovery, connection, and curiosity. And when I say growing, I mean it:

What began as one person (um, me) trying to make Talmud come alive to herself has grown into a virtual beit midrash of more than 96,000 people (more than 20% growth from last year 🤯!) learning together.

Thank you to everyone who has already donated! I am writing your names within the art of my backdrop, as a constant reminder of the fact that I can't do this without you. (It's a little challenging because I have to write them backwards lol, but I'm doing it!) Together, we’re building something much bigger than a social media project: a vibrant community of Jewish learning, identity, connection, and joy.

Shalom friends!
The #DafReactions Hadran Alach Giving Campaign is underway! These are a few of my favorite comments about what this work means to you 🥹 (omg I’m not crying, you’re crying!)
This campaign will fund multimedia tools for getting into Daf Yomi, including:
* Accessible glossary videos of key Talmudic terminology!
* “Meet the Sages” mini biographies!
* Longform interviews with expert friends of the show!
* Jewish Book Reactions episodes, all focusing on Talmud-adjacent books!
* Infographics exploring how the Daf Yomi journey unfurls, and when tractate and other milestones will be reached!
* A resource list highlighting groups and classes, online and in person, that you can join to learn the Daf!
* And a virtual siyyum (celebration) marking the completion of the current Daf Yomi cycle, creating a shared celebratory learning experience for all of us together!

Link below to donate! Your support is VITAL to making this possible. Gifts will be MATCHED until June 30, and are tax deductible. Thank you all so much!

A dispatch from The Daf Reactions Project HQ:
Shalom, friends! The current Daf Yomi quest ends on June 7, 2027 ( 🤯) and a brand-new
cycle revs up the following day!

Over the coming year, I'll be creating new resources, guides, and tools to help and hype current learners crossing the finish line and welcome brand new Daf Yomi adventurers.

✨ So next week, on June 7, 2026, I'll be launching the Daf Reactions Summer Giving Campaign to support this work!

✨✨Thanks to an AMAZINGGG Jewish organization, launch donations will be MATCHED, dollar for dollar.

✨✨✨Plus, all donations are tax-deductible!

Stay tuned for more details!
Thank you!
