Shidduchim and Shalom Bayis
Conversations with
Rav Shlomo Hoffman
talmid of Rav Issac Sher
and confidant of
Gedolei Yisrael
Rav Yechezkel once asked the
Chazon Ish why he wasted so much
time answering questions about trivial
matters. Since Klal Yisrael had such
great need of the merit of his Torah
study, why waste his time on such
questions?
The Chazon Ish explained that he
only answered questions concerning
shalom bayis, which is so important that
Hashem's Name is erased for it.
"But you answer on a daily basis such
questions as what kind of store to open,
or on which floor to buy an apartment,"
Rav Yechezkel protested.
The Chazon Ish then explained.
"Why would anyone come to me and
open his heart about all his problems
at home? It takes me a year or two of
answering ordinary questions to make
him feel heimish (comfortable) with me,
and only then will he be willing to share
with me his problems in shalom bayis.
Only then can I help him."
Rav Shlomo Hoffman zt"l was a stud-
ent of the Chevron Yeshiva seventy
to eighty years ago. He was among those
who established a close connection with
Rav Isaac Sher zt"l, and merited to receive
from him guidance in avedas Hashem, the
understanding of the human nefesh, and the
foundations of man's purpose in this world.
Throughout his life, from a young age
until his passing on Purim 5773, Rav Hoff-
man aided those who were in need of pro-
fessional mental health counseling. Gedolei
Yisrael (foremost among them Rav Shach
zt"l), Roshei Yeshiva, and school principals
were greatly assisted by Rav Hoffman's ad-
vice and wisdom.
In the last thirty years of his life, he
agreed to the request of bnei Torah to give
vaadim (private lectures) to small groups
and individuals; these vaadim were even-
tually organized and published under the
title, Sichos im HaRav Shlomo Hoffman. This
second volume in the series deals with shid-
duchim
and shalom bayis.
The responses received from across the
Jewish world have been phenomenal. Par-
ents and educators, young and old, Torah
scholars and laymen, mental health profes-
sionals and counselors - all enjoy the
unique depth of wisdom that Rav Shlomo has to
share. Many commented that the sefer
changed their outlook on life.
Now the English-speaking public can also be
part of the amazing influence this series has
had across the Torah world. Read and
discover... the Secrets of the Soul.
