Orphan date December 2010 Considered by some to be a Igorot Tingguian mercenary, and by others as merely a local villager, Januario Galut also known as Jacinto Galut was the man who led United States U.S. troops to a position from which they could surround and defeat the forces of Gen. Gregorio del Pilar in the Battle of Tirad Pass http www.bibingka.com phg cabugao default.htm . Galut has been considered a traitor among Filipinos. The Igorot peoples, of which Galut was one, were also subject to much discrimination by lowlanders so it has been questioned why they should have felt loyalty to the revolutionary government. http www.pinoyexchange.com forums showthread.php?t 300207 The only documentation linking him to the above action is in the testimony of the U.S. Texas Regiment which participated in the battle.

Aechmalotarcha , or chmalotarcha , in antiquity, is a Greek language Greek term signifying the chief or leader of captives. The Jew s who refused to return with Zerubbabel to Jerusalem after the Babylonian Captivity created an chmalotarcha to govern them. The people themselves did not refer to him by that title, since they spoke Hebrew language Hebrew or Chaldee , not Greek. Origen and others, who wrote in Greek, rendered the Hebrew name Rosh galut , or , Reish galuta in Aramaic , meaning head of the exile or exilarch . However, Jews must have had officers of this kind before the return from Babylon for example, in the Apocryphal story of Susanna Book of Daniel Susannah , the two elders who condemned her were chmalotarch that year. 1728 Jewish hist stub Category Jewish Babylonian history Category Greek words and phrases ... more details

In 1923 he left Klausenburg for Jerusalem where he resided until his death in 1924. He is best known as the author of Dor Revi i, a classic commentary on the tractate Hullin , and as a supporter of Zionism and a founder of Mizrachi religious Zionism Mizrachi . His father was Rabbi Avraham Glasner 1825 1877 , who preceded him as chief rabbi of Klausenburg, and was in fact his only teacher. His mother, Raizl n e Ehrenfeld , was the oldest granddaugher of the Chatam Sofer . Method of study A profound and innovative scholar, he was noted for his independence as a halakhic authority. He advocated a return to the method of study of the Rishonim pre 1500 CE rabbinic scholars whose way was to explain with crystal clearness, to examine, to search for truth without any respect for any person introduction to the Dor Revi i he opposed the method of pilpul casuistry that arose during the era of the Acharonim post 1500 CE scholars , saying pilpul is as far from the path of wisdom as East is from West id. and a weakness developed in the Galut during whose millennia of persecutions and migrations our capacity for straight thinking had been wellnigh destroyed . Similarly, in his monograph Ohr Bahir on the laws of mikva ot , he rejected halakhic reasoning based on esoteric sources or divine inspiration, arguing that only arguments that can be subjected to rational criticism and evaluated in terms of halakhic sources known to halakhic experts at large carry weight in arriving at halakhic decisions. His work also developed an innovative method in understanding and applying the code of Maimonides Rambam . Many of codifications of the Rambam had perplexed commentators because they seemed to be at odds with the relevant Talmudic sources. These seemingly a ... more details
Yitzchok Isaac Hutner 1906 1980 was an American Orthodox Judaism Orthodox rabbi and rosh yeshiva . Image R.Hutner Purim .jpg thumb 260px right Rabbi Yitzchok Hutner the Rosh yeshiva of Yeshiva Rabbi Chaim Berlin at a special Purim celebration in his yeshiva . Early years Yitzchok Hutner was born in Warsaw , Poland , to a family with both Ger Hasidic dynasty Ger Hasidic Judaism Hasidic and non Hasidic Lithuanian Jews Lithuanian Jewish roots. As a child he received private instruction in Torah and Talmud . As a teenager he was enrolled in the Slabodka yeshiva in Lithuania , headed by Rabbi Nosson Tzvi Finkel Slabodka Nosson Tzvi Finkel , where he was known as the Warsaw Illui prodigy . Having obtained a solid grounding in Talmud , Hutner joined a group of the Slabodka yeshiva that established a new yeshiva in Hebron . He studied there until 1929, narrowly escaping the 1929 Hebron massacre because he was away for the weekend, on his way to see Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook . It was during his stay in the British Mandate of Palestine that he became a disciple of Kook, the first chief rabbi of Palestine as it was then known. The philosophical and mystical mind set of both men made them kindred spirits. Like Kook, the young Hutner eventually developed a warm welcoming posture towards non religious Jews who were seeking to become more religious. They viewed things in the context of the end of the Jewish exile, Jewish diaspora golus galut , with the imminent coming of the Jewish messiah messianic era . In later years, when Kook s name became associated with the Mizrachi Religious Zionism Mizrachi , part of the Religious Zionism Religious Zionist Movement , Hutner, an eventual member of the non Zionist Haredi Judaism Haredi Agudath Israel of America s Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah Council of Torah Sages , sought to downplay his former association with Kook, even though he maintained cordial relations with Kook s son and heir Rabbi Zvi Yehuda Kook and other prominent students such as Ra ... more details
