Mekubal Rabbi Yaakov Adas , who is admitted to Shaare Zedek Medical Center, hinted on Friday night the kidnapping of the youths was due to President Shimon Peres taking part in a prayer service with Pope Frances and PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) during his recent visit to the Vatican.
Rav Addis was hospitalized on erev Shabbos Shelach 5774 after collapsing at the Kosel, the result of numerous fast days last weeks on behalf of the captive youths.
Kikar Shabbos reports learning that on Friday night after davening maariv in the medical center’s shul, he requested to be taken back to the shul to deliver a message to the tzibur. He hinted in his words the kidnapping is the result of the prayer service involving the president, the pope and PA chairman.
He explained that prayer has the opposite effect and as the three prayed for peace, the opposite occurred to the three youths. He explained that this shows just how must a prayer in such a tamei venue, one of idol worship, results in the opposite occurring and when they prayed for peace, this received the kidnapping.
The rav was visited by his father HaGaon HaRav Yehuda Adas on motzei Shabbos. The rav was released late motzei Shabbos but returned to the hospital after he did not feel well during the predawn hours. The rav did manage to daven neitz on the balcony of the medical center.

With all due respect to Rag Addis, the more likely cause of the kidnapping is that Palestinian terrorists saw a Jewish target and executed the assault.!
Let HASHEM run the world & be the judge . Our job is to self- reflect!!
With such headlines/stories YWN should change its name to YWNE “Yeshiva World National Enquirer”
If he really has such good connections with what goes on may’achoray hapargod, rather than tell us why they were kidnapped let him share with us where they’re being held.
Rav Adas shlit”a claims the kidnapping was because the President of Israel prayed in the Vatican causing the opposite to occur if one prays in a place of tumah.
Rav Shteinman shlit”a sees it as a mida keneged mida, claiming the kidnapping of the 3 DL boys was because of the IDF draft law abducting boys from yeshiva, esp that it’s the DL who’s strongly fighting for this law to pass.
Rav Lior shlit”a claims it’s because of the anti-religious laws in general, esp the parade that occurred on that same day.
How does Rabbi Adas know? Does he have a private phone or/& e-mail link with the Ribbono Shel Olom?
What a chilul hashem for a jew to “pray” in the vatican
Oh please.
It is clear that Mekubal Rabbi Yaakov Adas collapsed as punishment for pretended to know why Hashem did this… I hope he will learn his lesson.
Can these guys just stop already, they are not G-d they have no right to say why G-d is doing things, and all it does when they say it publicly is it makes u look like imbiciles
Exactly how do comments like that help the situation? ??????
I’m sorry, but I refuse to believe that HKB”H would make these boys suffer because of something that Peres did.
He is a very big Tzaddik and maybe he does know why things happen. that doesn’t mean that it has to be broadcast all over the internet. This isn’t necessarily the kind of news you want to spread because those that have emunas chachomim will have no problem with it, many others unfortunately will be lead to the grave sin of mocking a Torah scholar. So i dont see the point of such an article unless you guys just like to be rabble rousers and don’t really care about the outcome of the articles you post.
Let the bashing begin! It’s time …………..
to do something in which zchus all of this trouble should be mehapech meivel l’yom tov umishibud l’geula hashta baagala uvizman kariv! All the pir’aniut should be switched to the evil doers by the non jews.
And maybe he collapsed for being motzei shem rah? Just sayin.
Just out of curiosity , is the time line of the 2 incidents aligned? And I’m glad to see that we still have neviim in our days who can guide us properly !
1. The same Hash-m that decided they should be kidnapped, could have said they shouldn’t. Trust HKBH and NOT some mamzer arabs.
Hey “M”
The Rov collapsed before he made the statement. Get your story straight.
Please note the “hinted” in article,
What obviously has happened is that his words have been deliberately misquoted by whomever spread this, he probably said that “it’s possible” or something like that.
(£
ditto what crazybrit said.
whoever writes the headlines for YWN should be fired, and the people who comment without reading the actual article aren’t too smart either.
I’d say that just like the idea of rendering the Gemara in easy to understand punctuated language was kidnapped from Rabbi Steinsaltz so to were his talmidim.
Too all the people here who like like to knock Tzaddikim and gedolim, the next time u fast for another yids tzara you can talk, until u keilim reikonim will fast for Jew u don’t even know DONT YOUR MOUTH.
Don’t open*
All do respect to everyone, rav Chaim kanievsky, rav shteiman and the family of Rav eliyishai did do a goral ha’gra as was reported on every charedi paper and station in Israel. Why doesn’t anyone have an issue with that? They have an email to Hashem? What about a group chat? No no no. They don’t . Rav eliyashev made rav addes a close Ben Baylis. It is well known what the stiepler said on rav addes “he is kadosh vitahor.” As ad side point he did not say that is the reason why they got kidnaped. But what he did say (first hand) these people think they can just go pray and everything is fine and dandy. Esau sone et yakov . We must learn Torah to increase in our tefilot in our own batei kanesiot. Peres tried making peice and all that came was the opposite. This is what he said. Stam as a side point rav Chaim does the same. He gives reason why things happen. He is a massive mekubal. The concept of a goral is even found I the Torah. As for the chillul Hashem this website, under the name of yeshiva??? Yeshivas Korach!!!!!! Yeshivas Bilam!!!!!! Yeshiva yordei gehinom!!’!!!!!
And for all the comments that are mivaze a Talmid Chacham and a tzadik, first try fasting for a week in merit of someone else who is bitzar then even open your mouth
