HaRav Chaim Cohen zt"l

By Yechiel Sever

On Monday from France came the bitter news of the unexpected passing of HaRav Chaim Cohen zt"l, rosh yeshiva of Yeshivas Orchos Moshe and Yeshivas Chochmas Rachamim at Moshav Berechiya, at the age of 52.

The aron arrived on a direct flight Monday night. The levaya set out the next morning from Beis Knesses Morashah in Ashdod's Kiryat Abramsky neighborhood, where the deceased used to pray regularly. After the eulogies the procession continued toward the yeshivas he founded and led with total dedication, Orchos Moshe, a yeshiva gedoloh, and Chochmas Rachamim, a yeshiva ketanoh.

HaRav Cohen zt"l was buried in the rabbinical section of the Berechiya Cemetery.
