When R. Samuel Engel used to be in Sanz he would study with the Badiever Rabbi – the Gorlitzer Rabbi’s son – a great man –
R. Samuel Engel related that once, late at night, he was discussing his studies with the Badiever. The Sanzer Rabbi was sitting in his room and it seems he overheard their discussion. He suddenly said: “What are you discussing? – and when they told him R. Engel felt such a new ability for study that he literally became a new man.
