By Rabbi Shimon Finkelman
Aryeh, a talmid in Lakewood, once passed the office of R’ Aharon Kotler, and saw him dancing—all alone! He watched in amazement until R’ Aharon noticed him and asked him to call Boruch, one of the yeshivah’s outstanding talmidim, to the office. R’ Aharon spoke privately with Boruch for some time. Afterwards, Aryeh asked Boruch why the Rosh Yeshivah had summoned him. Boruch explained, “For more than twenty years, the Rosh Yeshivah has strained himself to understand a comment of the Vilna Gaon on Choshen Mishpat. Today, he finally arrived at what he is certain is the correct explanation. That is why the Rosh Yeshivah danced. He summoned me to share the explanation he had been me’chadesh.” (Excerpted from the book – “For Love of Torah”)
