Various Events Scheduled to Mark Completion of Daf Yomi Cycle

By Betzalel Kahn

Under the slogan Yachad Shivtei Yisroel, and with feelings of spiritual uplift and simchah shel mitzvoh, a committee has been set up to organize the various events scheduled to mark the completion of the current Daf Yomi cycle followed by Jews around the globe in accordance with the program originally outlined by the rosh yeshiva of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin HaRav Meir Shapira.

Thousands of Daf Yomi participants and hundreds of maggidei shiurim are eagerly awaiting the various siyum ceremonies where the daises will be graced by gedolei Yisroel shlita representing every stream of Torah Judaism.

According to the organizing committee, a large siyum will be held on 20 Adar Alef at the Yad Eliyahu stadium in Tel Aviv, followed by local events throughout the week. The week will conclude with a second major event slated to take place in Jerusalem at Binyanei Ha'Uma.

Hundreds of rabbonim and maggidei shiurim from Dirshu are scheduled to arrive from the US and Europe to take part in the event at Yad Eliyahu. Dirshu expanded its network of monthly exams for Daf Yomi learners over the past year and today over 4,000 avreichim are tested every month. In addition, numerous evening kollelim have been started in Israel and abroad for baalei batim, many of whom also take the exams.

Details on siyum events for the honor of Torah will appear in subsequent editions of Yated Ne'eman.
