Dropsie College for Hebrew and Cognate Learning

So Acharonim have a right to disagree with Rishonim, have a right to disagree with Ge'onim, but you can't disagree with the maskanos HaGemara of Rabina and Rava, Shi, because they had belonged to a different tekufa where they were chachmei ha'masorah of Torah shebe'al peh that was transmitted be'al peh.

There used to be a Dropsie College in Philadelphia It was a Jewish, uh, it was a graduate school for people interested in Jewish history and Jewish philosophy.

So they used to have a Professor Solomon Zeitlin.

He was a big Am Ha'aretz.

So at that time, an Orthodox rabbi didn't make a living.

So my father had to do something in order to make a little more money.

So he went to Dropsie College, and they gave him, um, um, a s- a stipend.

So that added to his parnasah.
