No Fooling Reb Moshe

Me'oros Hatzaddikim | June 27, 2025

One time before I took a new friend to meet Reb Moshe, I explained that we should prepare by studying a shtickel Zohar on the parsha in advance. We did so and when I came in I had the Zohar turned to the first page of that week instead. Reb Moshe approached and declared emphatically, “No, no, that’s not it,” and turned the pages knowingly to the topic we had in fact studied together previously as preparation! He then studied this shtickel with us and left behind hints and ideas related to it. My friend was absolutely amazed.
