Description

Not long ago, a prominent matchmaker replied to a request for shidduchim by writing that she has many, many wonderful young ladies looking for a successful match.What she was lacking, she went on to say, was some young gentlementches.... "Oh, scholars we have plenty of." the matchmaker conceded with a sigh. They are fine students of Gemarah. What we don't have are enough young men who match their scholarship with mentchlichkeit..." ...This teaches us that if a talmid wants to be like an Aron - emitting the light of Torah - then he needs to rise above the metrics, and limits, society uses to measure "worth." Act like a mensch. Look like a mensch. Be a mensch! The inner self and outer self must be in balance.
