OPINION
& COMMENT
Utter Dedication to Hashem
One time, in the middle of a "normal" election campaign, one
of the rabbonim who was quite close to HaRav Shach zt"l
wanted to set up a separate political party, because he felt
that he could thereby attract many voters who would otherwise
not vote for a chareidi party. Because of his special
relationship with HaRav Shach, all the politicians who were
against that move appealed to the Rosh Yeshiva, fearing that
the overall effect would not be good.

terrorists.
The Dread of a Patriarch
by L. Jungerman
"`And Yitzchok feared an exceedingly great fear' -- said R'
Levi in the name of R' Chomo bar Chanina: Yitzchok
experienced two fears. The one when he was laid upon the
altar for sacrifice and the other, when Eisov entered. And
how are we to know which was the greater? Since it is
written here `An exceedingly great fear,' we may infer that
this was the greater" (Midrash Tanchuma).
