Was he afraid of the fanatics in South Africa.... There were no ultra orthodox Jews there at that time. Was he afraid of embarassing Rav Chaim Ozer in Vilna who was a family member. Perhaps it would be assumed as sanctioned by Rav Chaim Ozer...

The passages are written in an ambiguous way, which is understandable. If a person writes something down, he himself may understand what he meant, while another person may not (or misunderstand/understand it differently). It is well known that books (including books on non-controversial subjects, say drivers' education) are redacted/read by at least another person before they are printed because a phrase may have been clear to the author but may be misunderstood or be ambiguous for a reader. And this is even after the author actually had in mind to submit something directly for publication and did not just write down his thoughts for himself so that he doesn't forget them.Avihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08236300097765188892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5576585332526677688.post-41430708348230233582017-03-12T10:17:53.028+02:002017-03-12T10:17:53.028+02:00It seems in all my studies that much data has been...It seems in all my studies that much data has been hidden or altered in every subject religious and secular for serious reasons mostly to suppress the truth...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06531177890004334936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5576585332526677688.post-16968610973796139552017-02-23T16:14:29.660+02:002017-02-23T16:14:29.660+02:00Fascinating.
