About This Program
The OU’s Shoshana Grossman Nach Yomi program was established to encourage daily study of the Prophets and Writings. Unlike Daf Yomi which has fixed page lengths, Nach Yomi assigns one chapter per day, making the commitment predictable and manageable.
Each chapter on this site includes:
- Full Hebrew text with cantillation marks
- English translation
- קלאוד על הנ״ך — Claude’s overview explaining the chapter’s content, themes, and significance
