Shiur given on a bus in Berlin. Rabbi Schachter discusses Rabbis Azriel Hildesheimer, Yaakov Ettlinger, Nosson Adler, Avraham Bing, Zvi Hirsch Kalisher, Pnei Yehoshua, Dovid Zvi Hoffman, and Yechiel Yaakov Weinberg. Why did German rabbis attend university while eastern European rabbis did not? What was the main focus of the writings of R Hoffman? Can one bring karbanos today? Is the length of bein hashemashos uniform ? Can one marry during aseres yemei hateshuva? Can one convert someone that you know will not observe a specific mitzva? Who taught in the Hildesheimer Seminary? Can one recite a blessing on electric neiros shabbos? Why might the teshuvos Melamed Lehoil be problematic? Why did Rav Chaim wait so long after tzeis to do work?
