What a Jewish Mother Whose Son Is Held Captive Thinks About
One excerpt from a letter to rabbis of the RCA from Mrs. Rachelli Sprecher Frankel, mother of Israeli hostage Naftali Frankel:
We trust the Rabbis will talk about Eyal, Gil-ad & Naftali in their Drashot this Shabbat. (Arvut is such a Tikun for Parashat Korach.)
בע”ה אל כביר לא ימאס תפילת רבים
Need we say more?
unfortunately achdus amongst frum jews is only possible when great tragedies occur….
but thanks must be given to the haredi community for coming to the fore for a crisis that is not in their community…
i am not sure that when the shoe is on the other foot [ like in the haredi economic crisis eg ] that other sectors go to bat for them…..
Lacosta, what does it mean “crisis that is not in their community”? Who’s crisis is this exactly?
““crisis that is not in their community”? Who’s crisis is this exactly”
Without entering any debate as to what steps/communal risks one should take to secure return of hostages-it is worth noting that the demonstrations for Gideon Shalit were almost totally by the chiloni population-thus one hardly saw a kippah or certainly a kapota at thier vigil near the Prime Ministers Office.
mycroft,
That’s false.
It was more common to find charedi mk’s there than secular ones.
