Description
Uri Ilan: "I did not betray." Suicides, Charedi in particular. R' Menashe Klein, Mishneh Halakhot 12:124: Students were told in a yeshiva to not learn halakhah. Chassidic world: Studying halakhah is superior to analysis. Litvish world: the reverse. R' Menashe vehemently opposes the yeshiva's policy. Sanhedrin 93b: That yeshiva is גוזל מנחלת אבותיו. Also, those who prevent study of halakhah are cursed by embryos. The Rav: Benefits of R' Chaim's approach, i.e. analysis. Rambam supports R' Menashe הל' ת"ת 1:2. From יו"ד רמ"ה ג we see it's a communal obligation. Nidah 30b: Angels teach all the Torah to embryos, thus the embryos curse. Several lessons from this: Ba'alei Teshuvah, Uri Zohar, Amish girl, Daf Yomi. A Rebbi should be like an angel. Belzer Rebbi & Sinai Campaign. MH 12:122: Why do you oppose answering halakhic questions via the telephone? R' Menashe: Talking on telephone is too quick, little depth. The posek is sometimes interrupted by the call & this encourages a speedy answer. Rav does not know the caller's phone number if he realizes a mistake. People called MH to make trouble לקנטר. One must live where there are poskim near you, so you don't have to use a telephone.
