So they must’ve split
Wikipedia:
The yeshiva was co-founded in the mid-1950s by Rabbi Michel Kossowsky, an Eastern European Talmudic scholar who had settled in South Africa during the Holocaust, and Rabbi Joseph Bronner, an alumnus of the Yeshiva Rabbi Chaim Berlin in Brooklyn, New York, who had settled in South Africa after World War II and was active in the business world. The yeshiva was named for Rabbi Kossowsky’s father, Rabbi Yitzchak Kossowsky, who had preceded him and had served as one of the heads of Johannesburg’s Beth Din (“religious court”.)
The first full-time instructor of Talmud at the yeshiva was Rabbi David Sanders (rabbi), who was brought out from the Telz yeshiva in the United States to teach the young students Talmud in the traditional style of the Lithuanian yeshivas. He in turn helped to bring Rabbi Avraham Tanzer, also an alumnus of the Telz yeshiva in the U.S., to teach at the yeshiva. Eventually Rabbi Tanzer was appointed the Rosh yeshivah (“dean”) of the school, a position which he has retained.
Rabbi Tanzer in turn brought out Rabbi Azriel Goldfein [1] (again, a fellow Telz yeshiva alumnus) to be a co-Rosh yeshiva; Rabbi Goldfein eventually left to establish the Yeshivah Gedolah of Johannesburg.
Yeshiva Gedola of Johannesburg was set up by Telshe talmidim Rav Azriel Goldfein zatza”l
and Rabbi Tanzer

Abba_S,
Obviously!
There were also chevra from other yeshivos who were TOLD to retain their own Kevutzos
Though finacially ,etc. they were all attached to the Mir
There are many people who learn and lack Yiras Shamayim and many have Yiras Shamayim and don’t learn
Yiras Shamayim is
what you do and what you are when no one is looking.
Those who has burning Yiras Shamayim ,it impels them to go out and change their environment
Maybe he was interested ,but less than you wish to believe

for a woman it’s her whole existence”

Having an Open Discussion bothers you?
huju,
“which you concluded that I was concerned about” death
Indeed
Again, you’ll avoid
Could you fathom there might be something worse for the world than death [even genocide] or you’re unable to imagine it?
It happens ..
And Males who worked all their life, what do they do?
A person should add romance and color to all aspects of life!
Do you and huju or don’t you and huju have Values you cherish worth more than life ?
RebYidd23,
It’s pertinent ,because?!
LU ,
you’re overestimating women, possibly based upon,those in your millieu
In many or most communities, CHasha”d is real, (however they’ll pretend )

‘Sh’lo La’shaves ye’tzarah’ is only a mitzvah?

“AY is talking about how things should be “
Also well said
AY,
Is it really like how it’s supposed to be?
american_yerushalmi,
Very well said
Gofish ,LU,
Plus what most consider Normative in modern society is at it’s root anti male
Some redress would be good?

Abba, Health,
Pashtus If a women is beyond childbearing age or unable to bear children , She isn’t commanded to
Unless there is an issue of Chasha”d
for the record ‘Sh’lo La’shaves ye’tzarah’ means women have an obligation to populate the world (through legitimate methods) as well as men
lilmod ulelamaid,
sounds like more than a little bias in your challenge?
Plus, let’s admit more than just a few women would rather be second wife to a ‘winner’ than sole wife to a so called ‘loser’
For Western Society it would be very good for them to restore Polygamy,for one it would remove so much angst- and precisely therefore they don’t!
Even previous studies that it harms the children have been proven false
Today ,however, it would be probably good for Dating if there would be a Jane Austen novel in every

Rabbi Miller was
battling attitudes of that era ,fostered
by Hollywood ,19th century novels,etc.
It is a different world now partially because of his success.
Rav Avigdor Miller was
without a doubt a superior expert in Chinuch and many other issues for the american millieu 1960s and 1970s than Rav Chaim Kanievsky Shlita and for that matter Rav Moshe zt’l
And they would be/have been the first to tell you that!
[ Whether what he said then is applicable for those here now, might be and could be a very different story.Even back then, two of my female relatives felt what he said in their seminaries was was less than beneficial for them in their particular circumstances]
We are going into tenuous territory when the discussion becomes who is a gadol (and who isn’t)
Who decides?
When the Agudah came to R’ Avigdor Miller to
requesting for him to come the 1997 Siyum Hashas ,his response was so him “I have a big Court Case coming up[i.e after his demise],I don’t have time for Parties”
Had he been sitting there in front of the Siyum Hashas , would the readers here give him a greater aura?
Had he been on the Moetzes ,would the readers here give him a greater aura?
Was he kept off as some contend,because some who had/have disproportionate influence had some fear of his straight unimpeachable unequivocal philosophy
e.g.as they indeed kept Rav Schwab at some distance also?
Huju,
‘Reply to “It is time for …”: I have no idea what you are trying to say, except for your assertion that there are things worse than the Holocaust. Perhaps I am unimaginative, but I cannot think of anything worse.’
Could you imagine possibly that there might be something in the world worse than your own death or you’re unable to fathom anything in the world that’s worse than it?
lilmod ulelamaid,
It is doubtful you or any of us are aware of Health’s identity
&
It is doubtful if he is like in in the real world
yehudayona,
How about the wikileaks showing Hillary’s interest in aliens?
What do you have to have 14th Amendment?
States’ rights Uber alles
Plus, the 14th was really supposed to cover Color of skin only
Everything else ( gender,etc.) was invented by the Warren ant- libertarian court
