Description

A father approached Rav Shteinman known for his wisdom, insight, deep sensitivity and understanding. The father was fervent in his faith and love for the Jewish people, so much so that he was adamant that if his child did not follow the "right" path he would sooner see him dead. Wouldn't the graet Rav, recognizing the father's love of Torah and Hashem, praise the father for this level of piety? No. ...The Rav made clear that such a father was not expressing sacrifice but was contemplating murder, for his motives were selfish, cruel and callous.
