Torah Live is a Jewish educational Torah organization founded by Rabbi Dan Roth that combines interactive multimedia presentations with live lecturers to teach Jewish law, philosophy, and ethics. Torah Live presents to diverse audiences from Ultra-Orthodox yeshiva students to secular Jewish businessmen in both kiruv and standard Orthodox settings. As of 2011, Torah Live has presented over 150 lectures in 50 cities worldwide including two Torah Umesorah Conventions, the United Synagogue Rabbi Convention in London, the Munich Conversion Conference, and Her Majesty's Treasury in Westminster.〔Hamodia Magazine, "Torah and Technology," Gavriel Horan, 2011〕 Torah Live has rabbinical approbations from British Chief Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, Rabbi Yisrael Reisman of Agudath Israel, and Rabbi Yitzchak Berkovits.〔http://www.Torahlive.com〕 ==History== Torah Live was founded by Rabbi Dan Roth in 2009 after he developed a multimedia class for a group of teenagers entitled “How to Make the Big Bucks” about the mitzvah of tithes or ma'asser. At the time, Rabbi Roth was a teacher in Yeshiva Ohr Somayach’s Yesod program and was looking for ways to catch the attention of his students. “Modern media has changed the way people learn. We have to ‘translate’ the eternal truths of our Torah into today’s language,” he said.〔Hamodia Magazine, "Torah and Technology," Gavriel Horan, 2011〕 Rabbi Roth's colleague Josh Goldberg recognized the unique potential of this approach to revolutionize Jewish education and encouraged and coached Dan to take his material global. After a few months of market testing at the local Jewish education institutions, Rabbi Dan Roth subsequently recruited a team of graphic designers and programmers and started producing multimedia presentations on topics such as blessings, sukkah, yichud, tzedakkah, and mezuzah.〔http://www.Torahlive.com〕 All material is in line with Orthodox legal rulings under the general oversight of Rabbi Yitzchak Berkovits, Dean of The Center for Jewish Values, the Rosh Kollel of the Jerusalem Kollel and a notable halachic authority amongst the English speaking Israeli community.〔Hamechanech, September 2011〕 Rabbi Roth was born in London, and moved to Israel in 2000, where he resides today with his wife and children. Rabbi Roth is also the author of “Relevance—Pirkei Avos for the Twenty First Century.”〔Feldheim, 2008.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Torah Live」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
