Shabbat 31: “Go and learn!”

The stories about Hillel and Shammai that you already know, and maybe some you don’t. Plus context about who they were, who their students were, and what we learn from them, in principle. Also – the value of Yirat Hashem, and how it imbues all other Torah activities with the meaning they’re supposed to have.
