#MKY Friend-Submitted: As I walked into shul, Ahavas Torah of Scottsdale, erev Yom Tov I saw this at someone’s seat…18 years ago, when I started davening for the amud here in Scottsdale, most of the members were not yet shomer Shabbos, and to see these sefarim was the greatest hachana, a reminder of what Jews are and what a neshama is

#MKY Friend-Submitted: You noted the yahrzeit of Rav Refoel Soloveitchik today, I was in Brisk when he was niftar and remember the levaya. Everyone spoke about how he took over his father’s ‘hardest’ battle and made it his own, fighting against both autopsies and also disrespecting bones of meisim by construction workers. It wasn’t a popular battle, and it never really ended. They would work at night, or out of sight, and it took all of Rav Refoel’s koach and energy, but he didn’t tire. The Torah of Brisk lives, but thanks to him, so does the sensitivity and halachic vigilance. (See attached sign, a rare instance of the Brisker Rov signing a kol korei)
