By Dov Shurin
Hashem simply goes beyond the letter of the law in His love for us.
The power of faith is unmatched; it can lift man above adversity and help him climb the highest of mountains. It can help him overcome pain and torture. It can make him see the light in a night that is inky in its darkness. The Gaon Rav Tzvi Hirsh Levin manifested such a faith when he was a starving and poverty-stricken rav in Halberstat.
Please say Tehillim and daven for: ● Yosef Shalom ben Chaya Mousha (Rav Eliyashiv) ● Aaron Yehuda ben Gittel Feiga (Rav Shteinman) ● Yitzchok Tuvia ben Rikel (Rav Weiss) ● Yisroel ben Chana Tzirel (Rav Belsky) May Hashem grant them all a complete recovery.
Editor’s Note: A photo Rabbi Tannenbaum included in last week’s My Machberes, of a meeting in Jerusalem between the Satmar and Belzer Rebbes, was, unfortunately, not authentic. The picture was obviously Photoshopped. Such a meeting did not take place. We regret our oversight in publishing it.
