Eruvim

Gav Shapiro and Maxim Shusteff came to our Open Beit MIdrash to talk about the potential Oakland eruv, and just eruvim in general. The purpose of an eruv is to allow people to carry things on Shabbat from one domain to another. An eruv turns the public space into a private space. In Oakland, because telephone wires are underground, the eruv will potentially be made of highway fences.

Thank you, Maxim and Gav!
