Episode Description

In this episode, I share a hesped for R’ Eliyahu Greensweig זצ״ל, a hidden talmid chacham, a prolific author — filling notebooks, and pages with his vast Torah knowledge. Though not a public figure, his quiet brilliance, meticulous exactitude in seforim, and endless written output made him truly unique. I reflect on my personal connection with him and the lessons we can take from his life — humility, precision, generosity, and the discipline of writing Torah every day. His passing is a deep loss for the world of Torah, but his legacy of words and learning continues to inspire.
