Rav Shaul Alter, the Gerrer rosh yeshiva, is on a visit to Los Angeles, where he’s been greeted by thousands during various stops.
The son of the Pnei Menachem of Ger, Rav Shaul served as the rosh yeshiva of Yeshiva Sefas Emes Yeshiva in Eretz Yisroel and today heads Kehillas V’Yeshivas Pnei Menachem.
He is renowned for his extraordinary yedios haTorah, his in-depth shiurim, his clarity of thought, and his insightful approaches to chinuch and hashkafah.
During his visit to Yeshiva Ohr Elchonon Chabad on Sunday, Rav Shaul encouraged the bochurim to increase their hasmadah in limud haTorah, leaving the bnei Torah uplifted.
At a separate kabbolas ponim, attended by various rabbonim, including Rav Elchonon Tauber, Rav Shaul was introduced by Rav Chaim Boruch Rubin, rov of Etz Chaim of Los Angeles.
