Podcast: Building Torah in America
Jewish history soundbites with Yehuda Geberer
interview with the legendary Rabbi Dr. Aaron Rakeffet-Rothkoff who learned in Lakewood and Yeshiva University. Below part 1 and Part 2. Lakewood part starts at 21:25 part 1
he never claims to - quite to the contrary. But he's a firsthand witness and had many interesting stories to share about BMG and the yeshiva world in general of that time
What do you know about the haskafah about the yeshiva? Do you know there was chalav stam in BMG in the 50's? Do you know what Rav Aron was against all the chumros and new things that many do today?? Brisker Chumros…. haleva the yeshiva does what Rav Aaron wanted... Like learn more than ten blatt a zman...Is that Rav Arons hashkafa??
Rabbi Rothkoff is a fascinating and learned man. He definitely spent a few months in Lakewood. I don’t think he represents the hashkafa of BMG
