The fact that there is a hot and heavy debate going on right here, indicates to me that Rabban Gamaliel was right on the money, and in his wisdom foresaw many of the problems being discussed. “..Great is study of the Torah when combined with a worldly occupation, for toil in them both puts sin out of mind. All study of the Torah which is not supplemented by work is destined to prove futile and causes sin…..” seems quite straightforward.
