Kovetz Chidushey Torah, Chanukah 2009.
Rare & special blessing on flyleaf "Bs"d to grow & hatzlacha in in Rocnuyus & Gashmiyus Aharon Yehudah Leib Steinman".
The gaon Rabbi Aharon Yehudah Leib Steinman [1915-2017] was one of the leaders of Chareidi Jewry and nasi of Degel HaTorah’s council of Torah Sages. He stood at the head of the central stream of the Lithuanian Torah world for the past several decades, and Chassidic Admo"rs also submitted to his authority, such that he was called ‘the leader of the generation’ [‘מנהיג הדור’].
He was known also as ascetic and abstinent, and despite the hundreds of millions that were given to him by wealthy Jews, he lived modestly in a small apartment and slept on a Jewish Agency-issued bed. The gaon Rabbi Aharon Yehudah Leib Steinman passed away in his 104th year and hundreds of thousands participated in this funeral.
