About U’vlechtechu Baderech

U’vlechtechu Baderech, the Monroe based organization that has been distributing Yiddish recordings of shiurim since 1997, is hoping to reach more people than ever by taking their extensive library and offering it online at their new site, eshiur.org . Founded by Yitzchok Aaron Sternfeld, U’vlechtechu Baderech began with a few drashas from his own shul and over time, the collection has grown to include over 20,000 shiurim from over 1500 speakers.

Until now, U’vlechtechu Baderech’s extensive library had only been available either via distribution in select specialized stores in Williamsburg and Boro Park, approximately eighty five Shuls in Brooklyn, Monroe and Monsey, or by mail order. With the launch of eshiur.org, customers worldwide who have been clamoring for recordings of Yiddish shiurim can download them online. Thousands of shiurim have already been downloaded to the website, with more being converted to digital format and added to the site constantly.

U’vlechtechu Baderech was founded fourteen years ago with the goal of enabling people to utilize their commuting time in a positive fashion, by listening to shiurim, turning travel time and traffic gems into precious opportunities for Torah learning. The organization estimates that their lectures result in a staggering one millions hours of learning annually.

The volume of offerings at eshiur.org is simply staggering with multiple speakers on each and every parsha and eight different maggidei shiur on almost every mesechta of gemara. Shiurim can be selected by season (Elul, Pesach Sheini, Shmita and many others), subject (emunah and bitachon, dina d’malchusa, kashrus, shidduchim and dozens more) or by name of speaker. Shiurim are available on cassette, CD or by download. Prices for selections range from $1.98 for cassettes to $2.50 for cassettes. Downloads are available for .99 and while the link expires in one month, purchasers are permitted to save the file on their own storage device for their own personal use. Special MP3 Collections, which contain several shiurim and are available either on CD or as a download, are offered in a variety of prices.

U’vlechtechu Baderech continues to build its library of shiurim either by sending representatives to record specific shiurim, or by receiving submissions from the public. Shiurim are edited to remove background noise and anything that is not relevant to the topic. Artwork is designed for each shiur which has to be titled appropriately and then added to U’vlechtechu Baderech’s massive catalog.
