In The Daf Reactions Project, Miriam Anzovin shares her practice of daily study of the Babylonian Talmud in the Daf Yomi cycle from the viewpoint of a formerly Orthodox, now secular, Millennial feminist. Her videos are her authentic reactions, with commentary both heartfelt and comedic, centering Jewish joy. What began as a personal creative learning project in 2021 has grown to become a movement of over 100,000 learners, across multiple social media platforms.
Her role in her work is not as a teacher, nor as a rabbi, but rather as a fellow learner, a fellow traveler, on the path of Jewish discovery. Through her content she invites others to walk beside her on this journey and connect with Jewish teachings in ways that are relatable and personally meaningful to them.
You can watch Daf Reactions videos, which are typically published 2-3 times per week, on this YouTube playlist, on Instagram, on TikTok, as well as on Sefaria, where each video is connected to its source material as an additional learning guide.
Daf Reactions is supported by grants, artist fellowships, and the direct support of viewers. If you would like to contribute to sustain this work, please click the donate button!
