He then attended the Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary (RIETS), finishing in 1990 and proceeded to the Azrieli Graduate School of Jewish Education and Administration in 1996.\r\n\r\nHe was appointed Rosh Yeshiva in the spring of 2002 and began teaching Talmud at Yeshiva University and its affiliated RIETS in the fall of that year. His shiur has gained much popularity in its short existence, and is currently one of the most popular shiurim in the Yeshiva. Some credit this popularity to his ability to blend the teaching styles of his two teachers, Rabbi Mordechai Willig and Rabbi Hershel Schachter. Rabbi Willig is known for his focus towards practical understanding and Rabbi Schachter is known for his ability to present topics in the Talmud in a broader context. Rabbi Sobolofsky blends these two styles to form a unique package that many students find most rewarding.\r\n\r\nIn addition to his role as Rosh Yeshiva in RIETS, Rabbi Sobolofsky also serves as the spiritual leader of Congregation Ohr HaTorah in Bergenfield, New Jersey. His synagogue has attracted many Orthodox Jews to the community. Rabbi Sobolofsky also lectures at the Bergen County Beis Medrash Program (BCBM) housed at Congregation Bnai Yeshurun in Teaneck, New Jersey.\r\n\r\nPrior to his appointment as Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbi Sobolofsky was a fellow of the Gruss Kollel Elyon and then went on to teach in Yeshiva University's Stone Beis Medrash Program for seven years.\r\n\r\nRabbi Sobolofsky is the author of a sefer, Reishis Koach, on Maseches Bechoros.","teacherPhotoURL_o":"https:\/\/cdnyutorah.cachefly.net\/_images\/roshei_yeshiva\/zvi_sobolofsky_o.jpg?rev=201805017-2000003816"}],"shiurURL":"\/2007\/969\/718521.MP3","shiurTeacherFullName":"Rabbi Zvi Sobolofsky","postedInCategoriesIDList":234050,"age":"ageAll","mediaTypeCategory":"audio","shiurHref":"https:\/\/www.yutorah.org\/lectures\/lecture.cfm\/718521\/rabbi-zvi-sobolofsky\/who-is-a-jew-contemporary-halachic-perspectives-on-conversion\/","postedInSeriesIDList":4025,"shiurLanguage":"EN","postedInCategories":{"607":{"categories":[{"dataHref":"https:\/\/www.yutorah.org\/sidebar\/cache\/category\/234050.html","subcategoryID":234050,"categoryName":"Geirut","href":"https:\/\/www.yutorah.org\/halacha\/jewish-law\/geirut\/"}],"groupName":"Halacha"}},"shiurCanBeDownloaded":1,"dataGeneratedAt":"Data generated at {ts '2023-05-27 04:02:25'}","playerDownloadURL":"https:\/\/download.yutorah.org\/2007\/969\/718521.mp3","shiurDate":"May, 19 2007 00:00:00","shiurDateFormatted":"2007-05-19"},{"shiurDateSubmittedText":"Feb 8, 2007","shiurMediaLengthInSeconds":3601.0,"shiurDateSubmitted":"February, 08 2007 19:52:39","shiurMediaLengthIsUpdated":1,"postedInLocations":[],"shiurID":717615,"shiurNeedsToBeEmbed":0,"shiurIsNew":0,"shiurTitle":"Shiur on Hilchos Gerus #2","shiurDateSubmittedUTC":"2007-02-08T19:52","shiurIsFileMissingOnServer":0,"shiurDuration":"1 hr 0 min","shiurDateSubmittedFormatted":"2007-02-08","downloadURL":"https:\/\/download.yutorah.org\/2007\/1025\/717615\/shiur-on-hilchos-gerus-2.mp3","shiurDateText":"Feb 8, 2007","shiurDateSubmittedText2":"Feb 8, 2007","shiurDataHref":"https:\/\/www.yutorah.org\/sidebar\/getLectureDataJSON.cfm?shiurID=717615","shiurLecturePageURL":"https:\/\/www.yutorah.org\/lectures\/lecture.cfm\/717615\/rabbi-moshe-d-tendler\/shiur-on-hilchos-gerus-2\/","postedInLocationsIDList":"","shiurMediaLength":"January, 01 1900 01:00:01","postedInSeries":[{"dataHref":"https:\/\/www.yutorah.org\/sidebar\/cache\/series\/4015.html","seriesName":"4th Year Halacha Lemaaseh","seriesID":4015,"href":"https:\/\/www.yutorah.org\/4th-year-halacha-lemaaseh\/"}],"shiurDateUTC":"2007-02-08T00:00","targetURL":"mms:\/\/media.yutorah.org\/yuriets\/2007\/1025\/717615.MP3","dataCacheTimeSpan":-0.020833333333333332,"shiurTeachers":[{"teacherEmail":"tendler@yu.edu\r\n","teacherPhotoURL_lp":"https:\/\/cdnyutorah.cachefly.net\/_images\/roshei_yeshiva\/missingpicture.png?rev=201805017-2000003816","teacherID":80197,"landingPageURL":"https:\/\/www.yutorah.org\/rabbi-moshe-d-tendler\/","teacherPhotoURL":"https:\/\/cdnyutorah.cachefly.net\/_images\/roshei_yeshiva\/moshe_d._tendler.jpg?rev=201805017-2000003816","teacherFullName":"Rabbi Moshe D.
