The Challenges and Triumphsof R. Mordechai Pegrimansky He could never stop learning Torah -so he didn't sleep.In the ghetto he was concernedthat his food might be stolen -so he didn't eat.He was unable to keep to any schedule -so he learned and taught around the clock.He could never sit down in the yeshivah -because when he walked through the door,the whole Beis Midrash ran to him,demanding a shi'ur right away.So he stood on the steps and gave it.Even the Rogatchover Gaon praised his acuity -so he walked out immediately,not wanting to embarrass others who were present.Faced with the Sho'ah,"he didn't see Germans, he saw pesukim."He was a super-genius that few could comprehend.But when called on to be the spiritual fatherof dozens of orphans after the War,he lowered himself to the level of each childand spoke the language that he could understand.He was "not part of this world,"yet his heart overflowed with love.Sixty years after his departure,everyone who ever met him remembers him.Now it is time to tell his story in full. table{border-collapse:collapse}td{background-color:#efefef;font-weight:bold;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:16px;border-style:solid;border-width:1px}th{font-family:sans-serif;font-size:16px;border-style:solid;border-width:1px} Sku: 8500662 Author: Rabbi Michael Ya'akov Bitton Pages: 568 Size: 6.7" x 9.7" Binding: Hardcover Imprint: Z.
