Description

Yaakov Avinu is described as a 'zaken'. We are called Bnei Yisroel. Yaakov Avinu 'lo mes'. Yaakov bridged the generation gap. All of these point to Yaakov being the ultimate symbol of the Mesorah. During the shiur, you can hear a clear recording of the Rav describing his own exprience giving shiur as an old man.
