Is Rav Gershon Edelstein for real??
He is reportedly 99 years old and yet he functions like an energetic, clear minded, 39 year old. Just today he is all over the Yated Neeman giving chizzuk and hadracha for the Olam HaTorah as we go into Bein Hzmanim.
At his age MOST PEOPLE are LOOOOONNNGGG DEAD. Those who aren't are usually not very functional. Yet, like Moshe Rabbeinu, Rav Gershon is לא כהתה עינו ולא נס ליחו!!!! Fresh and vibrant!!! I read not so long ago that when the zman ends in Yeshiva, he CONTINUES ON where his shiur left off and keeps giving shiurim. NOT NORMALLLLL!!!
All I can do is give him my ברכת הדיוט for decades more of the same.
We have been discussing role models on the blog recently. Here is a GREAT one!!!!
