Product Description

The original Hebrew of the best-selling "Harav MiBrisk" has won the hearts of Jews in Israel and world over, and has created a new genre in Torah literature.

VOLUME 3

The third volume of this comprehensive, well-researched biography provides a wealth of information on the Brisker Rav's life in Eretz Yisrael from 1950 until 1956. During these years he disseminated his astounding Torah and nurtured countless talmidim - in tandem with his uncompromising stand and battles against drafting women and grave desecration, both of which were the bane of chareidi Jewry in Eretz Yisrael at that time. In addition, this volume contains chapters outlining the Brisker Rav's perspective on child rearing, emunah and, for the first time, the "Zionist dream" and its demise.

The fourth and final volume of this monumental series, spans the years from 5716 (1956) up until the Brisker Rav's passing in 5719 (1959). In addition to chapters depicting his greatness in Torah and his leadership qualities, much is written to portray his extensive efforts toward upholding traditional Torah values, including his battle against the Zionist authority's insistence on watered down Yiddishkeit and the establishment of a modern-day Sanhedrin. The last chapter chronicles Maran's final days, as well as his petirah and levayah.
