התיעוד שמרתיח את נשות הלוחמים: לינה מעורבת בבית המג”ד בלבנון

The other week I was at a local shul for shalosh seudos.

Two burnt-out yeshiva guys from prominent yeshivos were talking.

One of them mentioned that he wanted to study philosophy at Hebrew University.

And it suddenly dawned on me.

The whole mehalech halimud may have originally been popularized, at least in part, as a practical response to the universities of Berlin and the intellectual world they represented.

Then, somewhere along the way, it became founded al harerei kodesh.

Yet in 2026, the only place where someone can still develop a ta’avah for a university philosophy department might be the yeshiva world itself.

Outside the yeshiva world, who is still dreaming about philosophy departments?

It may be the only place still fighting them.
