Talk:Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Date problems

"Yekusiel Yehudah was orphaned of his father at the age of 13. Afterwards he studied with other leading Hasidic rebbes, including Rabbi Yehudah Aryeh Leib Alter of Gur (the Sfas Emes)..."

It is impossible for Halberstam to have studied with the Sfas Emes in 1918, since the SE died in 1905. Is this supposed to be the Imrei Emes?
