42 COMMUNITY MAGAZINE It was just four years ago, at a Shas Yiden farher on the entire Shas at the home of the Nasi of Shas Yiden, Maran Sar Hatorah, Hagaon Hagadol Harav Chaim Kanievski, shlit”a. “Rav Chaim” had made a request to the founder of Shas Yiden, Hagaon Harav Avrohom Eisen, the Pozna Rov, shlit”a , to open a Shas Yiden kollel in Bnei Brak. Rav Eisen did, and it took off with a minyan of avreichim geonim. Now, he told “Rav Chaim” that he had been asked by Rabbonim in Yerushalayim and other Torah communities to open more Shas Yiden Kollelim. They saw how unique the program was, especially with each of the avreichim geonim completing Shas every year. Aside from finding suitable avreichim geonim, it would be a tremendous fiscal responsibility. He asked for “Rav Chaim’s” opinion and for his brocho . Without batting an eyelid and with a broad smile “Rav Chaim” gave a warm brocho and said that Rav Eisen should blessed to open TEN such kollelim ! He well knew the worth and ‘product’ of Shas Yiden, after all he had tested them for years, and the Sar Hatorah gave an amazing approbation - “I can say that they know Shas!” Now - A Sixth Shas Yiden Kollel With this Rosh Chodesh Elul, a SIXTH Shas Yiden Kollel was opened in Kiryat Sefer – Modiin! The excitement at grooming Shas Yiden in this Torah community has stirred the imagination of tens and tens of avreichim , all who wish to learn how to master Shas by heart. They are expected to cover 13,555 blatt a year – the entire Shas 5 times! The aim is also to master every Rashi and Tosfos b’al peh ! While there are so many applicants for the twelve slots, competition is fierce and the entrance examinations are grueling. Twelve tears ago. Shas Yiden started with 6 avreichim geonim in Beit Shemesh, where there are now 23, Yerushalayim (15), Bnei Brak (18), Beitar (12) and London (13). With the new Shas Yiden in Kiryat Sefer, the total will be 93. The Rosh of all the kollelim is Hagaon Harav Moshe Isaac Samet, shlit”a . Another Dynamic Farher What better a way to celebrate the opening of another Shas Yiden kollel than with another dynamic farher of all the avreichim geonim ? This, just within two months of the last farher, and which is posted on the Shas Yiden website (www.shasyiden.com) . The avreichim geonim gathered in Bnei Brak and were tested vigorously back and forth throughout Shas. Each Shas Yid had his own microphone, and the responses were like a Torah tidal wave. “Rav Chaim’s Brocho” Spawns yet ANOTHER Kollel Plus ANOTHER Farher By Rabbi Eliezer Sandler L-R: Hagaon Harav Yaakov Yehoshua Englander, Rosh Yeshivas Machnovka; Maran Hagaon Harav MatzliachMazuz, Rosh Yeshivat Kisse Rachamim; Maran Harav Chaim Tzvi Shapira, Raavad Belz in Eretz Yisroel; Hagaon Harav AvrohomEisen, Pozna Rov, Meyased Shas Yiden; Hagaon Harav Moshe Isaac Samet, Rosh Hakollelim L-R: Hagaon Harav Moshe Isaac Samet, Rosh Hakollelim; Maran Harav ChaimTzvi Shapira, Raavad Belz in Eretz Yisroel; Hagaon Harav AvrohomEisen, Pozna Rov, Founder - Shas Yiden s ” f f broad smile “Rav Chaim” gave a warm brocho and said that Rav Eisen should blessed to o en TEN su kollelim !
