Subject: Rav Soloveitchek's Chumash Shuir Notes

1) I heard the Rav give shuir for 7 years--4 of which were on Chumash
(Gen 2,3,4 and one other pereck). There are a variety of sources for
notes on these

2) Dr Steve Oren (who posted on MJ a few months ago) used to distribute
notes every week (more than Dr Lee Michaelson). Also a copy of his notes
wound up in one of the Graduate Harvard student apartments (I believe 64
Hammond street) but I don't know what happened to them.

3) My sister's Father in Law Rabbi Abraham BesDin has written a series
of books on the Ravs lectures.  He had a contract with the Rav and had
legal access to the Rav's tapes.  Many of the Ravs ideas are contained
in these books.

4) I wrote an articel PESHAT and DERASH: A New INTUITIVE ANALYTIC
APPROACH, which was published in Tradition Winter 1980, which contains a
focused group of examples many of which come from the Rav's shiurs which
I believe illustrates his methodologies.

5) I have a set of private notes (some of which were distributed to
friends)--from time to time I have posted on MJ some of the Rav's
explanations.
