"I can almost predict a pattern: the stickier the situation, the less likely it is that the family has a rav"
I read with great interest the article on Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan.
I felt a special connection to this extraordinary person. As a young teenager of 13, I wrote to Rabbi Kaplan a few times suggesting amendments to his sefer, The Living Torah. Rabbi Kaplan wrote me back letters, commenting on all my corrections, and complimenting, “You must be the smartest girl in your class.”
He offered to hire me as his future proofreader when I grew up, and sent me regards from his daughter with whom I share the same name!
Thanking you for an amazing weekly read.
