Over the past 7 years and 5 months, Orthodox Jews from around the world have committed to reading a page every day of the Talmud, a process known as Daf Yomi. In the US state of New Jersey, an astonishing 90,000 have squeezed into the MetLife stadium to celebrate the completion of the latest cycle. Daf Yomi was started by Rabbi Meir Shapiro in 1923 to make the study of Torah accessible, and as a way of uniting Jews around the world. Each Siyum HaShas celebration has been bigger than the last and this one is certainly no exception.
