Mishna Berura Summaries is a concise English synopsis of the Mishna Berura — siman by siman — written to make regular revision of the halacha possible at a glance.
About the author
Rabbi Moshe Yaakov Edelman has been learning in kollelim in Passaic (2 years), Ner Yisroel Baltimore (1), Mir Yerushalayim (14), Yad Shaul Johannesburg (13), and Mercaz Torah Utefilla in Baltimore (5).
Among his extensive teaching experience, Rabbi Edelman served as Mashgiach in Yeshivas Bais Yisroel, Neve Yaakov for seven years, before becoming a much-loved rebbe in the Johannesburg Cheder for twelve years. He is the creator of the widely acclaimed Rebbe’s Mussar Stories, and is currently the Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivas Gevuras Ari in Baltimore.
The summaries on this site grew out of years of learning and revising the Mishna Berura together with a group of students, distilled into a brief synopsis of every pertinent halacha.
What this is — and what it is not
These summaries are a learning and revision aid. They are written to help you review ground you have already learned, and to find your place quickly in a vast work.
They are not a substitute for learning the Mishna Berura itself, and they are not a source to pasken from. Halacha depends on circumstances that a summary cannot capture. For any practical question, please ask your Rov.
