Rav Mordechai Gifter Rav of Waterbury CT Today, 23 Teves, marks the 24th Yahrtzeit of Rav Mordechai Gifter ZTL (1915 - 2001). The connection between the Talmidim of Waterbury and Rav Gifter ZTL is as poignant as it is obvious: Rav Gifter was the revered and beloved Rav of the fledgling Waterbury community from 1941 until 1944!! Rather than my own feeble attempt at portraying Rav Gifter’s thoughts as to his years as Rav of the Waterbury Kehilla, I will heretofore transcribe Rav Gifter’s own words (Rav Gifter was renowned for his impeccable eloquence and unique oratory skills). The following is excerpted from remarks which Rav Gifter delivered as the Opening Lecturer of the Community Lecture Series in Cleveland Ohio, in the year 1991, on the topic of “Diversity in Orthodoxy”: “Good evening my friends. When I was asked to speak tonight, on the influence of the Telshe Yeshiva upon the Jewish community, I wasn’t aware of the fact that it was part of a discussion on Diversity in Orthodox Judaism. You see, my friends, I’m not an Orthodox Jew. I’m at Torah Jew! Orthodoxy is strange to me. For years and years, I’ve been saying this over and over again, that this Greek term “or·tho·dox” doesn’t quite well describe what we Torah Jews believe in. And therefore, I will not be engaged in “orthodoxy” tonight, but rather in speaking a bit about Torah Jews..........” (Rav Gifter then shares his own personal feelings regarding his efforts in planting the seeds in the “beginnings of the Waterbury Kehilla”....) “I was in the rabbinate (in Waterbury Connecticut). It was a lucrative rabbinate, and I was able to live as a Torah Jew in the rabbinate (in Waterbury), although my congregants were far from that. But they listened to everything I said, as far as the community was concerned. As individuals, they were far from Torah Jews. And they were even very far from what you would call “Orthodox Jews”! But it was a wonderful kehilla in Waterbury Connecticut!! But when my uncles, the Roshei HaYeshiva, asked me to leave the rabbinate (in Waterbury), and come to (Cleveland) to help build the yeshiva, I said ‘I’m going to do it’. It meant giving up a great deal as far as means of a livelihood, and many other benefits, but it meant building Toireh!! And I didn’t feel that in Waterbury I would be able to begin building Toireh. Even though we had launched the beginnings of a day school, a kindergarten; work which was continued by a wonderful colleague of mine, Rav (Abba Zalka) Gewirtz, zol ehr langeh lebben, who followed me there, who built a complete day school in Waterbury...... “So I left Waterbury, and came here to Cleveland.........” [see WhatsApp group for remainder]

Yahrtzeit Yomi #933!! יט שבט Rabbi Dr. Abraham J. Twersky רב אברהם יהושע העשיל ב״ר יעקב ישראל (1931 - 2021) ------------------------------------------------------ Rav Avraham Yehoshua Heshel ben R' Yaakov Yisroel Twerski ZT”L In his tzavaah, Rabbi Twerski wrote that there should be no hespedim – an item he emphasized by circling five times – but, per another request in his tzavaah, as mourners carried the mittah to kevurah, they sang his famous song, “Hoshia Es Amecha,” which Rabbi Twerski had composed in honor of the weddings of his twin brothers, Rabbis Michel and Aaron, who got married several weeks apart in 1960. Rabbi Twerski once told his nephew Labe the reasoning behind this seemingly strange request to have the song sung at his levayah: “I know that this song brought simcha to many Yidden, and I hope that it will be a zechus for me in Shamayim.” יהי זכרו ברוך!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To dedicate or sponsor, please contact 917-841-5059.
