A special gathering of approx 250 Roshei Chabura led by the Roshei Yeshiva Shlit”a took place this past Thursday. The Rosh Hayeshiva Harav Malkiel Kotler Shlit”a opened the night with divrei bracha and a powerful message. At a time when there’s so much going on in the world, financially people are struggling, in Eretz Yisroel the yeshivas are under attack, now more than ever we must gather to Raise the Flag of Kavod HaTorah even higher. The Rosh Yeshiva gave the message to be given over to their Bnei Chabura on the vital importance of the Ma’amad and the attendance of every talmid of Yeshiva.
R’ Yechiel Wolf, one of the Chashuva Roshei Chabura in Yeshiva then addressed his fellow Roshei Chabura. He told over, how during the times of the Second World War, the Yeshivos in Eretz Yisroel were struggling. During a meeting of all the Gedolim the Ponevezher Rav stood up and proclaimed: “We have a havtacha that the Torah is eternal and will last forever, the only question is who will be the ones who are zoche to have a zechus in that”. Adirei HaTorah was mechazek and raised the yungeleit in Yeshiva to tremendous new heights and we have the opportunity to take part and join together for this tremendous display of Kavod HaTorah.
R’ Yosef Heinemann then addressed the crowd. His message was short and powerful and ever so true. Three years ago, Adirei HaTorah embarked on a mission to raise and uplift Kavod HaTorah to new heights. It was a bold mission, a mission that required changing a mindset of the world, “to instill in the heart of every Yid, to understand, bedam, belev ubenfesh, that the yungerman whose sitting and learning is the most important treasure that the Ribbono Shel Olam and Klal Yisroel have”. BS”D the results are overwhelming! Across the world Kavod HaTorah has been uplifted. Although economically things aren’t as easy as they were, the entire world is watching. Now more than ever, we must show the world that the foundation that Klal Yisroel stands on is the yungerman that is Amal BaTorah and BS”D we will continue to grow and expand.
