By Yechiel Sever and S. Bruchi

Led by gedolei Yisroel shlita, a procession numbering in the thousands — roshei yeshivos, prominent Torah and Mussar figures, admorim, rabbonim and thousands of students — took part in the levaya in Jerusalem on Sunday for HaRav Yitzchok Dov Koppleman zt"l, the rosh yeshiva of Yeshivas Lucerne in Switzerland.


Important Notice

As a result of reports of purported changes in the rulings of Gedolei Yisroel shlita with regard to Shefa Shuk and Mega Bull and their advertising in the chareidi press, according to Rabbeinu Maran HaRav Eliashiv shlita there has been no change in the matter, and no advertising of these chains should be accepted until all branches of AM PM are closed on Shabbos.

Places in Eretz Yisroel: Amuka
Amuka: The Tsiyun of the Tanna Hakodosh Yonoson Ben Uziel
by R. Tal
Nine-hundred-year-old written records link the final resting place of the tanna hakodosh Yonoson ben Uziel to Amuka, a place hidden in a wooded valley between Tsefas and Chatzor, north of the Biriya forest in Eastern Upper Galilee. Amuka, meaning "deep," derives its name from the fact that the grave is at the bottom of a gorge that bisects the high surrounding hills.
