MARAN HARAV SHACH ZTVK'L
Thirty Days Since His Passing
Special Section
New Sefer on the Torah of HaRav Shach zt"l
by Yated Ne'eman Staff
A new sefer with hundreds of heretofore unpublished
facts and hanhogos of Maran HaRav Elazar Menachem Man
Shach ztvk"l, published last week, has made a
tremendous impact in Torah circles the world over.
The book was published by Maran's grandson HaRav Usher
Bergman, as a sequel to his widely circulated Part One of
Shimusha Shel Torah. The sefer contains
hundreds of facts about gedolei Yisroel as told by
HaRav Shach. It includes an approbation by Maran and the
blessings of his son-in-law, yibodel lichayim arukim,
HaRav Meir Tzvi Bergman.
During editing of the previous book considerable material was
culled from Maran's accounts, as well as from those heard by
his students and others close to him. The material includes
amazing facts about gedolei hadoros and guidance for
the ben Torah and the yirei Hashem.
Rav Usher Bergman notes that the book was scheduled to be
published while Maran was still alive: It is not a collection
of accounts about him, but is a collection of facts and
hanhogos that Maran received from his mentors and then
transmitted to his students. Nonetheless, its current
publication will help perpetuate Maran's memory and serve
le'illui nishmoso.
