There was tremendous simcha and emotion in Yeshivas Brisk in Yerushalayim on Monday as the Rosh Yeshiva, Hagaon Rav Avrohom Yehoshua Soloveitchik, arrived at the yeshiva for the first time this Elul zman and delivered his shiur, following a difficult health period over the summer.
The Rosh Yeshiva’s arrival brought great joy and renewed hope to the talmidim and the entire Brisker olam after Rav Avrohom Yehoshua had been in serious condition during the summer months.
In recent days, word had begun circulating in the yeshiva that the Rosh Yeshiva was expected to resume delivering his regular shiurim. It was also learned that he is expected to stay in his new apartment, which was built adjacent to the yeshiva building.
Until Monday, however, there had been no definitive update, and the expectation was that the Rosh Yeshiva would begin delivering shiurim only later in the week.
To the great excitement of the talmidim, Rav Avrohom Yehoshua arrived Monday at the yeshiva and delivered the shiur, marking his first appearance in the yeshiva since the beginning of Elul zman.
