Pesachim 53 - Todos of Rome - Plugging into Vitality

Torah is so much more than a body of data, and the study of Torah so much more than an academic activity. The study of Torah is a practice. The regular practice of deep and meaningful Torah study is a source of vitality and life. This is what differentiates the Gavra Rabba (Person of stature) from the Tzurba deRabbanan or Talmid Chacham (Student of Torah). In the world of Torah the perpetual student is the highest level of status and stature.
