The Builders

The rebirth of the Torah world from a post-war nadir to produce today’s booming Orthodoxy is one of the great miracles of Jewish history – and the work of a mere handful of great leaders. Amid many great Torah leaders, these gedolim stand out for their outsize impact. They not only created yeshivas and replanted dynasties on new soil, but built movements, which in turn created vast sections of the vibrant Torah world we have today.
