Sholom Mordechai Hakohen Schwadron ((ヘブライ語:הרב שלום מרדכי הכהן שבדרון)) (1912–21 December 1997) was a Haredi rabbi and orator. He was known as the "Maggid of Jerusalem" for his fiery, inspirational mussar talks. Some of the stories he told about the character and conduct of Torah leaders and tzadikim of previous generations were incorporated in the ''"Maggid"'' series of books by Rabbi Paysach Krohn, whom Schwadron mentored. ==Early life== Schwadron was born in the Beit Yisrael neighborhood of Jerusalem to Rabbi Yitzchak and Freida Schwadron. His father was formerly the ''av beis din'' (head of the rabbinical court) of Khotymyr . He was the son of Rabbi Sholom Mordechai Schwadron, a leading halachic authority known by the Hebrew acronym ''Maharsham''.〔Lazewnik (2000), pp. 90–91.〕 This was his father's second marriage. Yitzchak Schwadron was widowed of his first wife, Chaya Leah, in 1898, leaving him with nine children.〔Lazewnik (2000), p. 379.〕 In 1903 he immigrated to Palestine with four of his children and remarried Freida, who raised the orphans as her own.〔 Yitzchak and Freida Schwadron had six more children together.〔Lazewnik (2000), p. 91.〕 Their son Sholom, born a year and a half after the death of the Maharsham, was named after his illustrious grandfather.〔Lazewnik (2000), p. 380.〕 Yitzchak Schwadron died at the age of 63, leaving Freida a widow at the age of 35 and young Sholom an orphan at the age of 7.〔 Freida struggled to support her young children, as well as her sickly brother who lived with her, by selling bread door to door. At night she found time to recite Psalms, and share with her children their father's Torah legacy.〔Lazewnik (2000), pp. 92–93.〕 Schwadron later published some of his father's Torah thoughts in the introductions to his books, ''Oholei Shem'' and ''Daas Torah Maharsham'' (Part II).〔Lazewnik (2000), pp. 380–381.〕 For a few years, Sholom was forced to live at the Diskin Orphanage in Jerusalem.〔 At the age of 12 he entered Yeshivat Tzion under Rabbi Yaakov Katzenelenbogen. At the age of 15 he entered the Lomza Yeshiva in Petach Tikva under Rabbi Eliyahu Dushnitzer.〔Lazewnik (2000), p. 381.〕 Despite his family privation, Schwadron developed into a Torah scholar of note. By the age of 18 he was learning 700 pages of Gemara every semester at the Hebron yeshiva,〔 which had relocated to Jerusalem after the 1929 Hebron massacre.〔Lazewnik (2000), p. 383.〕 In the seven years that he studied at Hebron yeshiva, he became the ''talmid muvhak'' (close student) of the mashgiach ruchani, Rabbi Leib Chasman.〔Lazewnik (2000), p. 384.〕〔Krohn (1987), p. 20.〕 He also studied under Rabbi Elya Lopian, Rabbi Yechezkel Levenstein,〔 and Rabbi Meir Chodosh.〔Lazewnik (2000), p. 387.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sholom Schwadron」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
