In this short class we discuss the author of Kadesh U'rchatz, Rabbi Shmuel of Falaise (French name: Sir Morel) and his well known contributions to the study of Passover. With apologies, I forgot to mention that credit needs to be given to Sam Gold and Shimon Steinmetz (via Twitter) for the images in this class.
In this class we study the ancient and medieval origins of Mincha, as well as a strange custom from the Middle Age to pray Mincha twice.

In this shiur we study the ancient origins of Aleinu, and we explore the development of liturgical rubrics known today as 'Maamadot'.

In this shiur we study the development of Keriat HaTorah in the past 500 years, with the major addition of Berich Shemeih and the reintroduction of the triennial cycle.
In this shiur we dive into how Keriat HaTorah evolved through the Middle Ages, and we focus on 3 major changes: the Baal Koreh, the Targum, and the Triennial cycle.
In this shiur we explore the earliest examples of Keriat HaTorah from Tanach, and how they may have shaped the ritual into Talmudic times.
In this shiur we discuss how Tachanun and Nefilat Apayim evolved between the years 1500-2024 in Halacha, in practice, and in the Siddurim.
