Reply To: Yeshiva Learning Styles

There are two kinds of learning styles. bekios and pilpul. It is not a good idea to “kvetch on a blat’, but ‘fuhren’ or traveling is not good either. Look at the Sefer תנו כבוד לתורה from RAV Shimon Furst z’l and Rav Noach Isaac Oelbaum Shlita on his hakdomas complaining that halacha considerations in learning are being side stepped. Look at the Sefer חדשים גם ישנים from Rav Yonasan Steif ztz’l where he balances both. The Rif, Rosh and Rambam should be emphasized in learning because they are the עמודי הוראה. The Mechaber follows their majority in psak.
