The presentation of four different great and renowned authors’ approach to basic Talmudic issues is enlightening, informative, and most instructive. Anyone who truly wishes to understand the wonder of studying Torah will find in this book an invaluable aid and learning companion.” — Rabbi Berel Wein, Renowned Rabbi, Historian, and Writer “I learned A Glimpse at Greatness with a group of students spanning a variety of levels. The material was great; they really enjoyed it. Overall, everyone thought the material was clear, very understandable, and super helpful (even to the more advanced learners). Some students have a very limited Torah learning background, and they were also able to access and benefit from the material.” — Rabbi Jonathan Shulman, Director of OU/JLIC at Penn Hillel
