Alei Shur is a new text-study course for intermediate-advanced students from Avi Fertig, Director of Mussar. While the source text is Alei Shur from Mussar Master, Rabbi Shlomo Wolbe, in the original Hebrew, students who are not proficient in Hebrew will be able to engage in the course as Avi will provide word-for-word translation during the lecture, which will be recorded. A written translation, however, will not be provided.
