Description
R' Israel Rivkin. Why the Rav used the word "bitterly" about pressure on him to Americanize. Mishneh Halachot 13:161. The missing Chatam Sofer source on translating Shas into German. Hamburg temple. Remaining an American Rebbi and not behaving like an Israeli Rebbi. The Rav wrote his public talks in Hebrew but then read them to the audience in Yiddish. Illegible handwriting in manuscripts. Different Hebrew pronunciations. R' Menashe Klein: Teach Torah only in Hebrew. Hebrew kept us while in exile. American requirement to only use English is a similar phenomenon. We resisted the Tsar. ורוממתנו מכל הלשונות comes first and then comes mitzvot. R' Rakeffet's parents and grandparents. Yosef Mendelevitch's arrival. R' Abba Bronspigel's shadchan. R' Menashe attacks attending college. R' Rakeffet: Don't ban Chabad in YU. R' Menashe: Only Hebrew, does not mean I advocate Zionism. The mehadrin tank base. Few responsa on conversions until modern times. Converting in Israel has a superior aspect to it compared to in galut. Some of the issues of converting a minor plus the Rav's policy. זרע בית ישראל. An evaluation of R' Shlomo Carlebach. "In One Era, Out the Other" by Michael Kaufman.
