Halpern first got involved in 糖心破解版 Press in 2009, when he came up with the idea to produce a volume collecting original essays on the weekly Torah portion from faculty across the University. 鈥淎fter a trip to Israel, I noticed a couple of projects of this type that had been done there, and it seemed like a no-brainer to undertake such a project at Yeshiva,鈥 he said. 鈥溙切钠平獍 and RIETS Press鈥 Dr. Jeffrey Gurock and Rabbi Feldman were very supportive of the endeavor, and everyone liked the name I came up with 鈥 Mitokh Ha-Ohel颅: From Within the Tent, so named because President Richard Joel often speaks about the plurality of voices at Yeshiva that fit within our 鈥榖ig tent.鈥欌
After the first volume was released in 2010, Halpern was encouraged to undertake a sequel on the haftarot, and he completed that as well, incorporating over 72 original contributions.
