Item Description:

Rabbi Meir Shapiro, founder of the Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, began with a vision of a yeshiva that would include all types of Jews and rise above the divisions amongst us. Despite some resistance, and with his own talents at speaking and organizing, Rabbi Meir Shapiro achieved his dream. That he prevailed in spreading Torah in the midst of the virulent anti-Semitism of pre-war Poland makes his story one of the most inspirational in all of Jewish history.
