Harav Yehuda Amit, who leads the yeshiva in Kiryat Malachi, spoke passionately about the role that Torah learners play in sustaining the world.
“When you study Torah, you are part of everyone more than anyone else. Why? Thanks to the study of Torah you revive the whole world. ‘If I had not made a covenant for day and night the laws of heaven and earth I would not have kept.’ The world would have closed down and you would have revived it,” says Rav Amit.

The Gerer rosh yeshiva, Rav Shaul Alter, is preparing for a trip to the United States in support of Bais Medrash Pnei Menachem in Yerushalayim.

Scheduled for the weeks of Parshas Mishpatim and Terumah, his trip will take him to multiple cities across the U.S. He will spend two days in Los Angeles, one day in Boro Park, Shabbos in Lakewood, and pay a two-day visit to Baltimore, Maryland.
The Rosh Yeshiva is expected to return home by Tuesday of the week of Parshas Terumah.
