The renowned posek Rav Yitzchok Zilberstein, who serves as head of the Bais Dovid Kollel in Cholon, has also been hit by the government cut in yeshiva funding.
A notice at his kollel stated: “The supporters of Torah have diminished, the kollel’s funds are empty, and the holy Torah cries out, ‘If there is no flour, there is no Torah.’ Whoever remains at the Bais Dovid Kollel should know that, unfortunately, there is no source of payment. May Hashem bless those who provide beneficence to talmidei chachomim.

Dear Editor@Matzav.com,
I am writing to express a concern that has been troubling me deeply. In some portions of the frum community, there is ostensibly concern about avoiding “hisgarus ba’umos” (provocation of the nations) concerning the growth and actions in Eretz Yisroel. However, I find it perplexing and disheartening that the same level of concern does not seem to be applied to Yidden‘s conduct here in places like Boro Park, Williamsburg, and elsewhere.

Agudath Israel of America introduces the second episode of its compelling new initiative, Torah Perspectives, designed to provide profound wisdom and valuable insights from gedolei Yisroel and prominent rabbonim. This video series aims to address contemporary issues through the timeless lens of Torah, offering guidance, inspiration, and chizuk to the wider Jewish community.

Q: Should July the Fourth be celebrated or is it chukos hagoyim?
Rav Avigdor Miller zt”l: Should you stop your learning to make a barbecue? No, there’s no reason for that.
But we hang out a flag from this synagogue on July the Fourth. Walk down Ocean Parkway, no flags. But here, yes.
I’ll tell you a story. In Vilna, Rav Yisroel Salanter once entered a big shul and it was the custom – it’s in the siddur – to say הנותן תשועה למלכים, a certain prayer for the king. Some siddurim still have that; a prayer for the President.

Rav Gershon Ribner, rosh kollel of Kollel Nesivos Hatorah and son-in-law of Rav Shneur Kotler, has succeeded in applying classical Talmudical analysis and methodology to understanding all areas of Yiddishkeit, bringing out its profundity and sense.
