TONIGHT IN MONSEY: Special Shechitah and Treifos Demonstration Shiur with Rav Amitai Ben David

A unique and educational Torah event will take place this evening, June 14, when the Agudath Israel of America Torah Projects Commission presents a special shiur in Airmont, New York, featuring Rav Amitai Ben David, acclaimed author of Sichas Chulin and a renowned expert in the practical and halachic aspects of shechitah. The program will begin at 8:30 p.m. at Bais Hamedrash Birkas Sheish–Skohl, located at 1 Regina Road in Airmont, and is expected to attract Daf Yomi participants, bnei Torah, rabbanim, and members of the broader community seeking a deeper understanding of one of the most fascinating and practical areas of halachah. What makes this event especially noteworthy is that the shiur will feature a live shechitah and treifos demonstration, offering attendees a rare opportunity to witness firsthand many of the concepts discussed in Maseches Chulin and related areas of Torah study. Through practical examples and real-life illustrations, participants will gain a clearer appreciation of the intricate halachos governing kosher slaughter and the examination of animals. Organizers explain that the program is designed not only for Daf Yomi learners studying or reviewing the sugyos of Chulin, but also for anyone interested in understanding the halachic foundations behind the kosher food that appears on Jewish tables every day. Rav Amitai Ben David has earned widespread recognition for his ability to present complex halachic subjects in a clear, engaging, and accessible manner. His sefer, Sichas Chulin, has become a highly regarded resource for those seeking a deeper understanding of shechitah and treifos. The shiur, as mentioned, will take place at Bais Hamedrash Birkas Sheish–Skohl, located at 1 Regina Road in Airmont, New York, beginning at 8:30 p.m. {Matzav.com}
