## Resource

In this episode of Everything Jewish, 10 Minutes at a Time, we reach the era of the Acharonim — the "Later Ones" — the final major group of rabbinic authorities who shaped Jewish law and thought from the 16th century all the way into the modern period. Following the towering Rishonim and the publication of the Shulchan Aruch, these brilliant scholars including the Beit Yosef, the Vilna Gaon, the Chatam Sofer, the Noda B'Yehuda, and many others analyzed, debated, and applied halacha to an ever-changing Jewish world marked by emancipation, enlightenment, persecution, and technological revolution. Their sharp insights, responsa, and commentaries continue to guide the finest details of Jewish life today. Join us for a fast-paced 10 minutes to understand how the Acharonim built the final layers of the vast edifice of rabbinic Judaism that still stands strong in our time.
