Rabbi Moti's Style of Learning
Question
I'm interested in knowing what is similar and what is different between your approach to learning and that of Rabbi Mordechai Sternberg. I know you have to really get inside it, but can the Rabbi point me to somewhere, or hint, or explain briefly in what light you see his method and whether there are concrete differences between you?
Answer
I have no idea. I'm not familiar with his approach. And in general, answering a question like this, even if one is familiar, requires an article, not a reply in a comment thread.
It won't fully answer it, but since we're talking about Rabbi Bigman, who isn't suspected of sympathy for that line, I'll attach his eulogy for Rabbi Moti of blessed memory. It's interesting and describes his style of learning in broad strokes.
