The legendary first meeting of Shimon Ha Tzaddik and Alexander the Great, in which the conqueror bowed down to the holy man, is much more than an exciting Talmudic tale. It encapsulates the relationship Shimon Ha Tzaddik was able to forge with Alexander, who not only spared the Jews from warfare, but allowed them to continue to live in accordance with Torah values. With this and subsequent Talmudic accounts of this great figure, Rabbi Wein demonstrates the dedication to the Jewish people that earned him the highest of Jewish accolades, "Ha Tzaddik."
