Coinciding with today’s Ushpizin, Yosef HaTzaddik, the IDF permitted mispallalim to daven at Kever Yosef in Shechem during the night, Monday-Tuesday, 20 Tishrei.
Among the participants was the Kaliver Rebbe Shlita, who was greeted by HaRav Elyakim Levanon Shlita, chief rabbi of the Shomron.
Some pointed out that it is not coincidental that Gilad Shalit is being released today, on the Ushpizin of Yosef.

What connection does Gilad have to Ushpezin of Yosef?
Ahavas- I think they’re comparing the 2 since yosef was also held captive for a # of years…
Ahhh the no coincedence crowd strikes again.
Last I checked, they didnt free 1000 murders to get Yosef back
