JLI\u2019s groundbreaking, user-friendly Halachah guide offers an unparalleled level of clarity and comprehensive detail, making it every home\u2019s definitive guide to everyday hilchos kashrus. Full Story<\/a> <\/p>\n

As Anash communities worldwide prepare to celebrate Hey Teves, JLI has announced a significant pivot, releasing a major Halachic work for the Chabad home. The first in a new series titled Living Jewish, The Complete Guide to Keeping Kosher is a groundbreaking volume now available for order at a special Hey Teves price of $35, offering a level of clarity and comprehensive detail previously unavailable in English-language Halachic literature.<\/p>\n

JLI is renowned for producing curricula for shluchim to reach broad audiences. This marks their first foray into a new arena. Their new book serves as every Chabad home\u2019s definitive overview of hilchos kashrus, covering the nitty-gritty of modern kitchens with rigorous precision while remaining visually accessible.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s too easy to rely on Halachos we learned long ago. The specific nuances of Halachah\u2014especially regarding modern appliances and less-frequent kitchen scenarios\u2014can sometimes blur over time. The Complete Guide to Keeping Kosher is designed to deliver mastery rather than just a refresher, enabling families to navigate their kitchens with absolute confidence and close any gaps in practical knowledge\u2014with guidance on how to kasher a kitchen, for example.<\/p>\n

Authored over four years by Rabbi Berel Polityko, a moreh hora\u2019ah in Airmont, NY, alongside Rabbi Meir Kerzner and Rabbi Mendy Goldberg, the entire project was produced under the direct guidance of JLI curriculum codirector Rabbi Mordechai Dinerman and Rabbi Mordechai Farkash, mara de\u2019asra in Seattle, WA.<\/p>\n

The result has drawn resounding praise from leading Chabad rabbonim. Rabbi Yosef Braun of the Crown Heights beis din noted that the volume enables \u201cevery Jewish home to know practically what to do, how to practice hilchos kashrus every step of the way.\u201d Dayan Levi Yitzchok Raskin, mara de\u2019asra for the Chabad community of London, England, was \u201cduly impressed with the scope of the work,\u201d noting that it \u201cwill certainly help expand the observance of kashrus and boost Jewish life overall.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unlike dense, text-heavy manuals, this volume uses JLI\u2019s signature educational assets\u2014custom illustrations, decision charts, and clear definitions\u2014to make the complex easy to understand. Rabbi Gedalia Oberlander, mara de\u2019asra in Kingston, PA, described the layout as \u201cset like a table,\u201d with every din accessible and \u201cvisually pleasing.\u201d Rabbi Boruch Hertz, mara de\u2019asra of the Chabad community in Chicago, asserted that the book offers \u201ctotal clarity,\u201d stating, \u201cI have yet to see something so clear and organized and yet, at the same time, so full of content.\u201d Rabbi Tuvia Kasimov, rav of Chevra Ahavas Achim and moreh hora\u2019ah in Crown Heights, described the book as \u201cpacked with piskei halachos explained clearly, pleasantly, and logically.\u201d<\/p>\n
