Since Rebbie died ,humility disappeared from the world.”
R. Yosef said to the Tana to remove this statement from the Breisa (Mishna*)
because "I am still here." (and I am an Onov)
The obvious question is how can an Onov say on himself that he is an Onov ?
The 诪讛专砖"讗 answers, Reb Yosef held the statement (there is no more Anivus in the world) to be incorrect. It was very important to have the Breisa corrected and remove this statement. He held that truth overrides humility. For the sake of truth he sacrificed his own humility and announced the statement is wrong because "I am still here" therefore Anivus is still here.
There is a famous story with Harav Yachezkal Abramsky zt"l while testifying in court said on himself to be
the greatest Halachic expert in the British Commonwealth. The judge said to him " You don't seem to be the
most humble Rabbi in the Commonwealth".
Rav Abramsky responded, "Your honor what should I have said, I am under oath."
讛讚专谉 注诇讱 诪住讻转 住讜讟讛 讜讛讚专讱 注诇谉
*Somehow it got into our Mishna
Rebbie wrote the Mishna and
wouldn't
have written
" Mishemes Rebbie".
