Apologies for the lateness of the last three Parshiot. We were away on a holiday break, with no access to a computer.




BARUCH DAYAN HA'EMET - HARAV YITCHAK KADURI ZT"L


We would like to say Baruch Dayan Ha'emet to Rabbi Yitzchak Kaduri, also known to be the 'Eldest Kabbalist,' who passed away last Saturday night. It is not known his age for there were many disputes. Some say 108 and other over 110 so we will leave this venue open.

One time Rabbi Kaduri visited the Lubavitcher Rebbe. At the meeting the Rebbe told him that his name 'Kaduri' (meaning 'globe') symbolizes that his influence will not only be in Israel, but in the entire world. Rabbi Kaduri was hospitalized the past two weeks, from a serious case of pneumonia.

Arutz-7 Hebrew Radio show host, Yehoshua Meiri, who was a student of Rabbi Kaduri told of how he visited Rabbi Kaduri at the hospital two weeks ago. He was accompanied by the kabbalist's grandson Rabbi Yossi Kaduri. Meiri reported that the elder Rabbi Kaduri told them that the time of Redemption has come.

Let us pray and hope for a speedy redemption just as all these great Rabbanim have predicted.
