None of the four Imahos was a bas talmid chochom.
It seems pashut to me that gavra at work has the right answer on this one & I’m assuming that Joseph agrees with this as well, because obviously if the girl is not a good girl or is just not suitable for the guy the fact that she’s a bas talmid chochom really doesn’t help anybody.
The Chofetz Chaim’s daughter was not frum – would you want to marry her anyway? I think not.
Therefore, clearly the most important thing is a good girl & once you’ve got a good girl it’s good to get a bas talmid chochom. I think this is what Wolf is trying to convey as well.
JF02 – I think this should help you out as well.
BTW It doesn’t say that the Talmid Chochom has to still be alive. I would posit that having been raised in the home of a Talmid Chochom is the point here.
