A wonderful talk by Rav Schachter. He makes a strong plea for “normalcy”.
David HaMelech didn’t have soldiers like we have in Zahal. The army rabbinate has incredible rabbanim.
We need everyone - doctors, engineers, rabbis.
No one should think that a rabbi is more important than anyone else (he quotes a letter from RYBS on this one).
Learning is learning. You don’t have to learn all the achronim to be considered a real learner.
If you only have a few minutes to learn, learn the Kitzur SA.
A rabbi’s first responsibility is to his children.
