Why Are Pirkei Avos Studied After Pesach

An explanation of why Pirkei Avos is studied on the Shabbosim after Pesach, alongside a discussion of medicine and a story about a doctor named Dr. Wallach who asked the Frierdiker Rebbe for forgiveness. Also discussed are the idea that every day of a person’s life in this world is a miracle, the renewal of creation at every moment, and parents’ role in their children’s learning during the summer and holidays.

**[Transcriber's note: The source captions provided for this episode are almost entirely corrupted — they appear to be an automated speech‑to‑text system that mis‑detected the spoken language (rendering English speech as phonetic Dutch‑looking text). Because of this, the vast majority of the raw material cannot be reliably reconstructed into coherent English sentences without guessing at words that were never actually captioned correctly. In keeping with the instruction never to invent content, names, or facts, I have NOT attempted to "decode" the garbled Dutch-phonetic strings into invented English sentences. Below is the transcript with only the portions that are clearly legible in English preserved verbatim (in their original order), and all corrupted/unintelligible stretches marked as [unclear]. This should be understood as a partial, best-effort transcript rather than a complete one.]**
