Why Aren't There More Rabbonim In Lubavitch?
Rabbi Mendel Krasnjanski
Source Sheet History of Chassidim who were also Rabbanim Point 1 - There is no need to aspire to be a Rov. Point 2 - There were many Chassidim who were also Rabbanim, however they weren't known as Rabbanim, rather they were known as great Chassidim. Should a Talmid Chacham who Toraso Umnaso (private individual) be required to pay community taxes? Must he be a Moreh Hora'ah (public individual) Point 3 - Ri Migash. Most today don't learn Halacha, they focus on Gemara. The amount of knowledge needed to properly pasken Halacha is immense and not many have that... Point 4 - Spiritual danger of being a Rov. Point 5 - Physical danger of being a Rov On what do we make Shehecheyanu? Why don't we make a Shehecheyanu on Sefiras Haomer?
