B"H, the Rebbetzin and I were zocheh to attend Chaggai shiur last night [incidently, the first prophetic speech in Chagai was delivered on Rosh Chodesh Elul...tssssss]...Amazing teachings were shared, amazing teachers were present (including several teachers named Reuven [ha'meivin yavin.])
Great teachings include:
1)Rav Machlis attempted to learn mesechet maakot many times with many different commentaries and was not successful until he learnt it with the "commentary" of Michael Fay… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_P._Fay
2)Eretz Yisrael isn't just a location, it is a civilization intertwined with am Yisrael waiting to be built.
3)Misc fact of the night: Rav Machlis's father's favorite vort... Dovid Hamelech's desire to be "shivti b'veis Hashem" and yet "l'vaker" to always feel like a visitor, fresh and new.
