12/5/25 – Shiur 538 – Ponevezh Yeshiva: Understanding the Machlokes and is it finally over?
How common are controversies over leadership in the Litvish yeshiva system? Is the Ponevezh controversy unique?
What were the main points of the machlokes and how did they develop?
Who halachically owns assets donated to a yeshiva — the Rosh Yeshiva, the fundraiser, or the institution itself?
When, if ever, may a yeshiva bring a dispute to secular arbitration or secular court rather than to Beis Din?
Host: Ari Wasserman, author of the newly published, revised and expanded book Making it Work, on workplace challenges and Halachic Q & A on the Job
with Professor Benjamin Brown – Professor at Hebrew University, expert on contemporary Haredi society – 6:49
with Dayan Shlomo Cohen – Dayan and author of the two-volume work Pure Money – 29:08
with Rabbi Pini Dunner – Rov in Beverly Hills CA, historian and lecturer – 45:54
Conclusions and takeaways – 1:10:30
