Lessons from R' Aharon Yehuda Leib Steinman's Life and Legacy

Speaker 1: I'm confident that Avakar only own five Saffarum al-Hatira, that one of those five would definitely be this Goddals Saffarum, his safer al-Hatira, because they're so beautiful, they're so enjoyable to read. He asks all the Khaşis that one might possibly come up with, but then, using his knowledge of all of Taira, he gives you beautiful plans, beautiful answers to answer the question. The Saffarum are called Ayyalas Hashachar and the Goddals name is Reb'ar in Yehuda Leib Steinman. Interestingly enough, ayyalas Hashachar is named for him and his wife, aaron, yehuda Leib and Tamar, his saintly and famous Reb'itson. But not only was Reb'ar in Yehuda Leib Steinman the Goddal Hadar in regards to Taira, mitzvos and Halachah, but Midos. He was exquisite, he was perfect in his Midos.

Speaker 1: And to bring out one story, i actually heard this from Rabbi Franz Schlieta. He said that there was a couple that came to the Goddal Hadar to ask him if they could name their son, who that they had just given birth to, moshe. We want to name him Moshe. What's the problem? There was a couple down the hall, their neighbor, who had just Rachmanulitslan, lost a child and infant, and its name was Moshe. And was it a bad omen, was it a bad mazel for themselves for the child to be named the same name of an infant who had just passed away, rachmanulitslan.

Speaker 1: And interestingly enough, reb'ar in Leib said don't name the kid Moshe. They asked why Is it a bad omen? No, he explained, because every time that you call your little Moshele you scream his little name, moshe, come here. It's going to be a thorn in the sides of the couple of the neighbor from down the hall. Every time they hear it it's going to pain them and therefore don't name your kid Moshe A Goddal, our Goddolam Kalei, israel's giants. They're not only masters in the Talmud and masters in Halachah, but perfect in their Midos. We see this from Reb'ar and Yehuda Leibsteinman and let it be goals of ours to acquire knowledge of the Tyrell and to break down bad Midos and to perfect our character.
