Reply To: working vs. army

Abra-

I’m not suggesting that serving in the army is more important than Talmud Torah. However, many would agree, that one is allowed to stop learning Torah in order earn a living. For the same reason, I assume one is also allowed to stop learning to take classes in order to be able to earn a living. Why can’t one stop learning in order to serve in the army, not because serving is more important, but because serving enables one to earn a parnassah?
