Around 150 years ago, a scholar by the name Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried wrote a revolutionary book, the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch/ The Abridged Version of the Jewish Code of Law. He somehow managed to capture the essence of all the sections of Jewish Law and condensed it into one small volume. I will be posting an abridged version of each law and will mention when other major authorities disagree with his opinion. We are currently reviewing the Laws of the Holidays You can find the Rabbi s blog on our website, Be sure to sign up for a daily of the blog.
