replies: text: The website is run by a fellow named Levi; I know him personaly. The photo itself is probably in the public domain. I've seen a better picture of the Rogatchover when I was a kid, I'll try to find it online. Daykart 15:21, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Here you are. http://www.rumbula.org/images/rabbi1.jpg   Can anyone verify the following stories? Apparently, the Rogatchover had long hair because he felt physical pain when the barber tried to cut his hair. Or that he did not want to go without a Yarmulkah even for the five minutes of a haircut? Daykart 15:26, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the story is that he did not want to be without a yarmulke because then he would be unable to learn.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.247.46.129 (talk) 02:43, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Besides the Lubavitcher Rebbe; Rabbi Mordche Savitsky of Boston and a brother-in-law of Rabbi Shimon Shkop (his name escapes me at the moment; but he was a Rabbi in the United States and retired to Eretz Yisroel in old age, in the late 1950's) also received Semicha from the Rogetchover.
Can anyone bring a source that the Lubavitcher Rebbe received Semicha from the Rogetchover? Itzse 23:10, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It is writen in Hayom Yom. in the begining there is a Biography of all the Rabeyim. in the bio of the Rebbe (not written by the Rebbe) it mentions that in 1925 he met the Rogatchover and received semicha from him Shlomke 00:05, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

text: I'l try to find out. also it seems there are some more people who recieved Semicha from the Rogatchover, one more is Rabbi Avrohom Elye Plotkin, the author of Birurei Halochos. in the Sefer there is a copy of the actual Semicha he received. Shlomke 01:19, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

message: "Rebbe Menachem Mendel Schneerson once quoted the Rogatchover, who said that the whole Judaism to him could be condensed into ten basic ideas, and were he to be smarter, it would be only one idea."
I thought Gemara Makkos tried the same. What is the background behind this quote? JFW | T@lk 09:50, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: But גוונא with respect, this ie en.wikipedia and, therefore where English sources are available en.wikipedia goes by WP:EN. Google Books has 64 "Yosef Rosen" and 41 "Joseph Rosen", nothing for "Rosin." Therefore reverted per WP:IRS. In ictu oculi (talk) 03:21, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
