What actually makes a great rebbe?
This week on Behind the Bima, the rabbis sit down with Rabbi Chaim Tzvi Senter, Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivas Aderes HaTorah in Jerusalem.
Drawing on decades of experience teaching and mentoring students, Rabbi Senter explains what separates a teacher from a true rebbe — and why the relationship between rebbe and student can shape a person for life.
The conversation explores the deeper mission of Torah education, the responsibility of a rebbe, and what it takes to inspire the next generation.
This season of Behind the Bima is sponsored by Julie Charlestein & Darryl Benjamin in honor of their grandparents, Morton & Malvina Charlestein, and their children, Ruby and Maccabi Benjamin.
