A parenthetical comment, off topic.
Daas Yochid posted above a response in Hebrew. How many here understood it quickly and easily?
My strong impression is that the younger generation has given up on studying Torah from primary sources and insists on translations into English. One of the refutations to Christian proselytizers was that they are phonies as their understanding of the Scriptures was only from translations while they were totally unfamiliar with The Original. What a tragedy if we were to reach that low level.
Yes, I am well aware that not everyone has the yeshiva background to study Torah in the original. But are the yeshivas and the hamon am (general public) moving in the opposite direction ? I am afraid so.
