Dear colleagues,
The webinar next Wednesday is an expansion of one I gave some time ago to

(e.g. building an eruv in a walled city, building an eruv in a city with over
60 Jews, etc.). This gets you into two issues. First, “J
What is the book? Would an individual eruv, e.g. the Baltimore eruv, be a 110
