Our entire lives revolve around our commitment to Hashem's mitzvos. Yet, hardly a single mitzvah in the written Torah can be understood on its own. What defines the forbidden work on Shabbos, the affliction on Yom Kipur, or the day of blowing an instrument on Rosh Hashana? How shall we tie words for a sign upon our hand? So little is revealed in the Written Torah. 
At Matan Torah, each and every mitzvah was explained in all its details to Moshe Rabbeinu, in what we call the Oral Torah. This Oral Torah explanation is the only way to understand - and the only true meaning of - what is contained in the written Torah. 
The study of Torah sheb'al Peh is the neshama and the life essence of Klal Yisroel. We have dedicated ourselves to it and made tremendous sacrifices to maintain it. Yet in our time of weakened emunah, the confidence in the Oral Torah system has also diminished. 
Indeed, the system of the Oral Torah seems to be a mystery: How could it have been passed down authentically for thousands of years? Could the multitude of details have been retained through memorization alone, with no written texts to lighten the burden? Seeing as the Oral Torah was given by G-d (in all its details) at Mount Sinai, how did disagreements come about? Can Rabbinic laws actually be binding when they are human inventions? 
These obvious questions were surely not overlooked by all the wise Rabbis throughout history. Rabbi Akiva, Rashi and the Rambam most certainly thought of them! Indeed, the greatest minds of all generations adhered to the Oral Torah unswervingly, kept its rules and regulations to the letter, and never expressed any doubts. Why? Because they understood the system of the Oral Torah properly, and when that happens, all questions disappear. 
Written by a master-mechanech and expert in the field, The Unbroken Chain offers everyone, young or old, the opportunity to comprehend the system of the Oral Torah and answer its related questions with ease. Never before has such a work become available to the broader community. Considering its subject, depth, and comprehensive explanation, this unique work is sure to be classic. 
In this fascinating book, Rabbi Sapirman shows that the Oral Torah we have today is the original, authentic one that was given to Moshe Rabbeinu on Mount Sinai. This unique and necessary book explains many puzzling issues, and will undoubtedly bring considerable chizuk to the Emunah in Torah sheb'al Peh.

Questions you forgot to ask your Rebbe.Many frum people observe mitzvos and yet seem to be lacking a sense of inner spiritual connection. Others seek understanding and depth of meaning, but have no Rebbe, no trusted mentor, to whom they can ask their questions. Still others have become tired, jaded, apathetic or cynical - and suspect that there are no answers worth hearing. In Search of Torah Wisdom - Questions You Forgot to Ask Your Rebbi is a fascinating, original, and inspiring work that will undoubtedly help thousands of frum men and women of all ages feel "re-jewvenated" in their Torah lives. This volume addresses questions we have, issues that are rarely discussed, and challenges we face as individuals and a community. Written in a friendly - even casual - and easy-to-read style, it draws on an incredible breadth of classic sources, and presents mainstream "yeshivish" hashkafah as it applies to our contemporary lives. Some questions addressed include: Why are Orthodox Jews so conservative? How do we understand bitter disputes between Torah giants? Why do rabbis issue bans on books if they only serve to increase their sales? What is the deeper meaning of Tanach, aggadata and minhagim? How do we view Torah, science and history? Where do non-jews fit in the Divine Plan? Where do chumros come in - and how about black hats? These and dozens of other questions are answered in entertaining and thought-provoking ways that will help you explore what it means to be a frum Jew, a ben or bas Torah - and a thoughtful human being who seeks a serious relationship with Hashem.
