There is absolutely no hetter to avoid the inspections of the Ministry of Education. The ministries of education and religious affairs are the largest of all donors of the yeshiva. I am issuing a hetter to allow bittul torah, canceling the morning learning schedule, in order {that everyone can] participate in the inspection.
--- Mirrer Rosh Yeshiva Rav Nosson Tzvi Finkel, yesterday, when the inspectors came to check out the Mir Yeshiva
Bravo!
ReplyDeleteI hope that this is not "too little too late" to revive the respect for Torah, and the feeling of obligation to actually learn the Torah for which one is being paid!

Joel- it's never to early to historically revise events to fit the standard charedi narative.
