VIDEO & PHOTOS: Levaya Of Rebbitzen Kanievsky A”H


[VIDEO & PHOTOS IN EXTENDED ARTICLE]

More than 50,000 people attended the Levaya of Rebbetzin Batsheva Chaya Kanievsky A”H, on Motzei Shabbos. The Levaya began just after 10:00PM outside the famous Kanievsky home – that hundreds of thousands have visited over the years – on Rechov Rashbam in Bnei Brak.  Many Simchos Beis Hosheiva’s planned for Motzei Shabbos were cancelled, as many Gedolim, Rebbes, & Roshei Yeshiva attended the Levaya of the wife of the Gadol Hador.

A decision was made not to inform Maran Hagon Rav Elyashiv Shlita, the father of Rebbitzen Kanievsky A”H, of the Petira of his daughter until at least after Sukkos.

  1. I cannot stop thinking about her. I visited the Rebbetzin in the summer, and she was so warm. Reb. kanievsky had the warmest and most personal wishes for everyone. A hug, and a kiss.

  2. Correction: the Rebbetzin’s name was Batsheva Esther, not Batsheva Chaya as you write here. Her mother’s name was Shaina Chaya.
