On the yahrtzeit of the tzaddik Rav Nesanel Weil zt”l, author of the Korban Nesanel commentary on the Rosh, Jews from various communities gathered at his gravesite in Karlsruhe, Germany to offer tefillos.
Organizers of the event described the atmosphere as deeply emotional and spiritually uplifting.
“The pilgrimage to the kever was filled with excitement and a unique sense of kedusha. The participants recited tefillos and words of hodaah, thanking Hashem for blessing Klal Yisroel with the light of Rav Nesanel’s Torah, and they pleaded that his great merit serve as a protection for all of Klal Yisroel. Many candles were lit and the heartfelt recitation of Tehillim could be heard from the assembled crowd,” organizers said.
One participant noted that the tefillos included special supplications for the success of Israel’s security forces “until the complete victory and the release of all the hostages.”
Throughout the gathering, rabbonim spoke about the towering stature of the Korban Nesanel — his greatness in Torah, his humility, and his unwavering dedication to Klal Yisroel. They described how he authored his profound commentary on the Rosh, illuminating the path of Torah learning for generations of talmidei chachomim.
Chabad emissary Rabbi Mordechai Mendelson, who serves in Karlsruhe, welcomed the visitors, many of whom had traveled from across Europe and from Eretz Yisroel. Among the groups was a large contingent of bochurim from the Satmar Yeshiva of Antwerp.
