  1. Is the terror over? Will they stop attacking a holy peirush on chumash? Or have they merely sharpened their fangs?

    1. Wild hyperbole.What's perturbing or scares you? We built walls to keep up the venerated sanctity of our commentaries

  2. It looks like they reworked the whole thing, which is what R gottlieb zt"l had committed to do. It will probably be similar to mikra mfurashby oz vhodor.

  3. Who is Rabbi Gottlieb?
    The walls should be erected between the leidgeyers who go around attacking seforim, people, and mosdos based on revenge and small mindedness and the rest of us who want to follow the Torah.
    The venerated sanctity of the Rishonim is not protected through mendacious kuntreisim and random signatures.

  4. I don't understand. Does Rav Landau really believe that Eretz Yisroel does not need to be fighting now? That the soldiers are only sent to the front for the glory of the State of Israel?
    What's pshat?
