Apparently, I have to clarify yesterday’s statement. If Rav Moshe wasn’t the unquestioned Gadol Hador, as ARSo pointed out, he was surely the Posek Hador in America. Therefore if there were a question of the Rebbe being a Novi, it would be fitting for Rav Moshe to test him. I didn’t mean that Rav Moshe had to give the Rebbe Haskamah as a Novi because the whole idea is preposterous. The Rebbe never claimed to be a Novi. In fact, had he made such a claim, everyone in the Torah world would have accepted Rav Shach’s assessment. This is just another attempt by his disciples to deify him.
To Menachem Shmei
You’re arguing that Rav Moshe wasn’t the Godol Hador because not everyone agreed with each of his rulings. This shows that you lack an understanding of the subject. Rabbi Akiva’s colleagues often challenged him, but that doesn’t diminish his status. The point is that Rav Moshe was clearly a Godol, but in Crown Heights they believe in a “god”ol whose every word is Divine C”V.
