Rabbi Aryeh Lebowitz

Then the Kleisenberger says, fascinatingly,

He says, this way people will stop dragging their feet about getting married because it will be embarrassing not to wear a talus.

So God let them be embarrassed into getting married so that they'll wear a talus.

Okay, those are the reasons that are suggested that I was able to find in the postcard.

Not surprisingly, he says, what are you talking about?

Wear a talus.

You should wear a talus from the youngest age.

When you're six years old, you should get the kid a talus already.

He says that, he quotes the Sefer Chassidim in Simitav Me'am Vav, that someone had a dream that he was about to die and that they decided up in Shemaim that he's going to get to live.

And he said, what did I do that I get to live?

And they said that you wore a talus even as a bachar and that you took care of poor people.

So those were the two big Zuchlias.

So apparently, that was one reason.

Ravadia says, From the age of six, he says, I don't see why not.

And he therefore suggested that everyone should wear one.

Rav Solveitchik would require Bachram to wear a talus in Maimonides.

I have a friend, Joel Mayle, who grew up in Boston, going to Maimonides, and he said that Rav Solveitchik would tell the kids, I think starting from Bar Mitzvah,

that they should wear a talus, a talus gadol.

Rav Shechter writes, that even a single person should wear a talus, because we have to be khoshish for the shitos, that you're not yotzei tzitzis without a tifa.

Dr. Grech was knowing this way as a child.
