HaRav Binyomin Yehoshua Zilber zt"l
Thousands joined rabbonim and roshei yeshivos at the
levaya for HaRav Binyomin Yehoshua Zilber zt"l,
a former talmid at Yeshivas Novardok and an oved
Hashem from his early youth, who passed away on the
Thursday before Rosh Hashanah at the age of 92.
Residents of Jerusalem's Bayit Vegan neighborhood are already
accustomed to these sights, but once again seeing Magen
Lacholeh volunteers dispatching extensive medical equipment
from its office facility on Shabbos and loading it onto an
ambulance for a patient being transported to Eretz Yisroel
for urgent medical treatment sanctified the Name of Heaven
and made a powerful impression on all those who witnessed the
selfless workers in action.
The compound surrounding the gravesite of Rochel Imeinu
o"h has been connected to the Jerusalem eruv
through the efforts of the Center for Eruvin in Eretz
Hakodesh, which was founded by the Rabbinical Committee for
the Sanctity of Shabbos. The eruv was set up under the
guidance of HaRav Avrohom Moshe Katzenellenbogen, the rov
posek for eruv matters in Jerusalem.
United Torah Judaism activists are making concerted efforts
to bring about the setup of a police station at the site of
Kever Rashbi in Meron and are demanding police act to ward
off the disorderly toughs who have been desecrating the site
through their recent unacceptable conduct.
[An excerpt from Toda'ah (Parshas Vayeilech,
5754)]
In the short time remaining between Rosh Hashonoh and Yom
Kippur, it is fitting to study the ways of our mentors, who
illumine the generations, the geonim vetzaddikim. Let
us examine their behavior during the holy day of Yom Kippur,
and perhaps by doing so we will learn something that we can
adopt so as to influence our own behavior on Yom Kippur.
Rejoice On Your Festivals, You, Your Son and Your
Daughter
The Rambam writes (Hilchos Yom Tov 17-18), "A person must be
happy and glad of heart on [the festivals] he himself, his
wife and his children . . . each of them with something
suitable for them. For women, one should buy clothes and fine
jewelry etc."
