The year was 1984, when the Lubavitcher Rebbe, ztl, introduced a revolutionary project which would change the world. He sets his sights on the possibility of Klal Yisroel mastering the Rambams Mishneh Torah by instituting an annual cycle. Gedolei Yisroel from every denomination lauded the program throughout the years, seeing in it the potential for every Yid to master the entirety of Torah Shebal Peh which is covered in these fourteen volumes in a clear, concise, and organized style. Since that time, tens of thousands of Yidden throughout the world learn the daily Rambambringing the blessing of Torah into their lives. The one-perek-a-day track completes the Rambam every three years, while those who learn three perakim a day complete the entire Rambam every year. This sunday marks the beginning of the 43rd cycle of the 3-perek cycle, and the 15th cycle of the one-perek cycleas well as the siyum of the previous cycle.
