I Won’t Waste Your Time With Shoddy Translations…
So I won’t link to this poor translation of Dr. Israel Eldad on the Temple when you should be reading the Hebrew original.
The same goes for this “translation” of Sdei Tapuchim (Hyehudi has the original).
The Truth or the Approved ‘Truth’?
(Seen on Chananya Weissman’s newsletter.)
re: Chaim Walder: Busting Some Myths
In response to Friday’s article, a reader writes:
I wouldn’t compare Chaim Walder’s rabbi-hood or lack thereof to that of Deri or Gafni.
Deri, for whatever shortcomings he may or may not have, is a very learned individual. I wouldn’t at all be surprised if he has semichah, though that is irrelevant.Gafni was a rosh kollel. A certain great Torah personality forced him to drop it and enter politics. If they weren’t politicians, I would certainly call them “Rabbi.”Walder, on the other hand…
End.
And just like that, I started suspecting all Rosh Kollel’s…
To be fair, yes those were poor examples. But my point still stands (using other names).
