Who are you?

A בן תורה who learned in ישיבה and wants to share insights on anything related to תורה. Topics are vast and approaches include למדות, מחשבה, השקפה, הלכה, ופלפול. I try to use the foundation I received from my many years of learning in Ner Yisroel and the great lessons I learned from my רבנים.

I am not a פוסק. If you have questions that pertain to הלכה למעשה, I urge you to reach out to your local רב. I am merely hoping to explore issues and topics, and will tell you how I conclude on them. If you have questions, ask them; we do not shy away from the truth.

Why Close To Torah?

Looking to publish and share my thoughts on תורה and inspire others. I have had the unique experience to sit and learn before many giants in Torah. That is not a privilege I take lightly. I feel it is my obligation to share my knowledge, experience, and take on life. The goal is through words of דברי תורה we can bring people “Close To Torah” and see the beauty of living a life of תורה ומצות.
