In case you (or I) missed it, this week’s Mishpacha page 15. Big ad that has many Roshei Yeshiva signed that they will allow any bochur in their Yeshiva to date if they are older than Teves in their 4th year. Included in those signed id Rabbi Malkiel Kotler and Rabbi Mattisyahu Soloman.
A big yasher koach to Nasi and other individuals who are misasek im hachnosas kallah who caused this monumental change l’tovas klal yisroel.
“if they are older than Teves in their 4th year.”
How old is Teves?
I don’t think you are reading that correctly. I read that the top names are the ones announcing their new rule, while the bottom names are joining only the brachos.
If they are older than 4 in teves?
I believe Teves is quite old.
No, the bottom says:
?? ??? ????? ?????? ??”?
and is signed by Rav Chaim Kanievsky, Rav Shteinman, Rav Malkiel, Rav Matisyahu, and Rav Shlomo Miller.
They don’t all even have yeshivos. They are saying that they join in giving the brachos mentioned above.
I’m confused. Did any of the yeshivos run by those listed on top ever have a freezer?
Either way, what’s already been in effect is that if a bochur comes back from Eretz Yisroel and spends winter zman in a different yeshiva (I don’t know if this applies to any yeshiva, or just some specific ones), when he joins BMG after Pesach, he can go out.
DY: Presumably all of them would have previously disallowed bochurim in their yeshivos from dating, since their yeshivos are for younger bochurim.
The better answer is that the purpose of this ad was not to change the rule–that they could do by kloping on the bima. The purpose was for outsiders to know that bochurim in those yeshivos are open season.
However, it is all dumb. Because those yeshivos generally don’t have bochurim in their 4th year.
Klopping on the bima doesn’t make it to Mishpacha magazine.
But yes, other than BMG, the whole thing seems irrelevant.
Right. They wanted to be in mishpacha magazine (and the yated) so that shadchanim and girls would know. I assume.
According to that theory, who sponsored the ad?
So, my latest theory is that this is all to encourage bochurim to stay in the U.S. in the yeshivos of those signed on top, and that popa is right that the BMG freezer is still running.
My latest theory is that Rav chaim is opening a new dating yeshiva only for dating bochurim, and they will also teach the rebbetzin a”h’s challa recipe
My latest theory is that your gadol in training is keeping you up at night and that you’re suffering from sleep deprivation.
Don’t worry, they usually outgrow it by the time they’re three.
