6131 – Torah Eternally and Constantly Forever
Q. Kvod Horav, long life. I saw on line recently that there is such a real concept that there should be a 24-hours a Day Non-stop Learning Torah in Yerushalayim, and not a minute where and when the Sound of Torah Is not heard! Is that really true?
A. Three Kedoshei Elyon indeed shared that uncommon concept when it came to learning Torah – they were the Ohr Hachaim Hakadosh (Rabbi Chaim ibn Attar 1696-1743) when he came to Eretz Yisroel; the Ramchal (Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto 1707-1746) when he lived in Padua, Italy; and Hagaon, Harav Chaim Volozhiner, (1749-1821) the famous talmid of the Gaon of Vilna.
They each had a yeshiva with ‘around-the-clock’ Torah learning, 24-hours a day, so that there would be no minute when the sound of Torah learning would not be heard in this world. The 24-hour period would be divided into shifts, and as one ended the next would begin.
Indeed a “Torah-24” Center has been opened in Yerushalayim and the Nasi leads in name of Maran Sar Hatorah, Harav Chaim Kanievsky, zt”l.
