·        You’ve
always known that a K’zayith had to be the size of an olive. You’ve always
wondered how things could possibly have become so confused. 
·        Find
out how this Halakha became distorted in the European Galuth. 
·        If
you believe that the Tora is rational; if you understand that Halakha cannot be
divorced from reality; if you feel that many Jews cannot relate to a Tora that
just doesn’t make sense…
·        …then
please donate to Machon Shilo to cover the costs of this ground-breaking
event.
