HaGaon HaRav Moshe Hillel Hirsch and three members of the Moetzet Chachmei HaTorah of Shas, HaGaon HaRav Moshe Maya, HaGaon HaRav Avraham Salim and HaGaon HaRav Shmuel Betzalel, braved the heatwave temperatures on Sunday to visit the three yeshivah bochurim imprisoned there for the “crime” of limud Torah.
The Gedolim spoke with the bochurim, the two brothers, Rafael and Baruch Yitzchakoff, and Tomer Spayev, and encouraged them with words of chizzuk.
Additionally, HaRav Hirsch, after witnessing the conditions of the prison, requested that the prison administration allow the bochurim more time in the shul since it is difficult for them to learn Torah in the cell. The request was granted.
Last week, HaGaon HaRav Dov Landua exerted himself, despite his frailty, to visit the prison and provide support and chizzuk to the bochurim.

See, they can learn in prison, and fulfill the edict of prison over giyus.
Why would they after the way you guys talk about the rabbis they should come visit your shivas?
Why is criminals in quotation marks? They broke the law.
Why were they allowed in? And once in, why were they allowed out?

@yidl613
Did they visit Hamas terrorist Shiva houses??
Why do ask such stupid zionist questions??
@yidl613
when should they make the shiva call, when those reshoyim enlists or when they die in their rebellion against Hashem?
Or perhaps you are referring to the foolish soldiers that themselves had no ideology but just followed the evil advice of their parents to die for their false god? Are those parents proud of their sons “great sacrifice”? Is that home a place for any Jew to visit?
Yidl,
Yes, did you?
To the person who said that Rabbi Aron Feldman holds that children should not write letters to the soldiers.
I did a lot of research because I was really shocked.
I was able to verify through two extremely reliable sources that Rabbi Aron Feldman never ever said that. He never ever told children that they shouldn’t write letters.
President Trump was correct when he said that nowadays we are living in a generation that is non stop infected with FAKE NEWS.
dina di malkhuta dina – why not respect ourselves at least as much as we respect non-jews? “two jews, three opinions” is funny, until someone gets hurt. or the beit hamiqdash is destroyed.
