b'The interwar period saw a Golden Age for the Telz Yeshiva in Lithuania. Under the strong leadership of Rabbi Yosef Leib Bloch (1860-1930), the Yeshiva grew and spawned an entire empire of educational institutions. High Schools, girls schools, Teacher\'s Seminaries, Kollel and more were all part of the great Telz infrastructure. As a powerful speaker, R\' Yosef Leib and later his son R\' Avraham Yitzchak (1891-1941) played a role on the national level as a leader in the Agudas Yisroel. Telz developed a unique intellectual brand of Mussar, which was given over as "Shiurei Daas". In honor of the recent yahrtzeit of Rabbi Mordechai Gifter (1916-2001), one of the greatest products of the Telz Yeshiva, here\'s another installment about this immortal institution.\\xa0\\nCheck out the history of Telz Yeshiva part I: https://jsoundbites.podbean.com/e/innovative-methods-rebellious-students-the-stormy-early-years-of-the-telz-yeshiva/\\nSubscribe To Our Podcast on:\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nPodBean:\\xa0https://jsoundbites.podbean.com/\\n\\xa0\\n\\nFollow us on Twitter or Instagram at\\xa0@Jsoundbites\\nYou can email Yehuda at\\xa0yehuda@yehudageberer.com'
