Rischa D'Araisa

"'Frenemies' for Forty Years" Rabbis Avraham Yitzchak Kivelevitz and Yosef Gavriel Bechhofer have served as congregational Rabbis, Dayanim, Rabbeim and teachers in various communities in North America. Authors of Halachic tracts, scholarly articles and reviews, editors of journals and English translations of Classic Jewish texts, they bring fresh, honest insight into contemporary issues and infuse age-old philosophical and literary quandaries with novel takes. Expect intense disagreements and well-intentioned personal barbs that simmer and entertain in a way that is unique to a multiple-decades relationship of two out-of-town Yeshiva guys* that Hashgacha has brought together. *Rabbi K is from Memphis, TN and Rabbi B is from West Hempstead, NY, and they met in Skokie, IL.
