Talmid Chochom vs. Talmida Chachama
Girls nowadays attend elementary school, high school and usually seminary too. They learn a lot Tanach, halacha and hashkafa.
“Sometimes, however,” says Rav Shlomo Volbe, “when a girl gets married, she discovers (to her disappointment and surprise) that her husband, who she was told was a talmid chochom isn’t as knowledgeable as she is in those areas.”
“She should know” continues Rav Volbe, “that no matter how much she knows, she will never reach her husband’s ankles in his knowledge and understanding of Torah. There is no comparison to anything she knows to the knowledge that a Ben Torah acquires in yeshiva; not in scope nor in depth.”
