JHS: Rebbe! The Life of Rav Nochum Partzovitz

This yahrtzeit episode was originally recorded exclusively for Mir Yeshiva Yerushalayim. It is now being included for the benefit of Jewish History Soundbites listeners. If you enjoy this podcast and would like to donate to Mir Yeshiva Jerusalem, you can do so here: https://secure.themir.org/donate/ Rav Nochum Partzovitz (1923-1986), was most known for his approach to Talmudic study, which gained renown within the Yeshiva world. Having grown up in the Vilna suburb of Trakai, he proceeded to study at the great Yeshivas of Baranovitch, Kamenitz and finally Mir, from which he never left. Through the war years in Shanghai, where he studied together with Rav Leib Malin, through the post war years in New York, he established himself as the elite of the Mir Yeshiva student body. This reputation was cemented with his marriage to Rebbetzin Ettel, daughter of Rav Chaim Shmuelevitz, and Rav Nochum's subsequent appointment to the position as Rosh Yeshiva. With his simplicity, modesty and his popular shiurim, Rav Nochum was a beloved Rebbi in the Mir Yeshiva and a beloved individual to all who knew him.

Hamodia: Hespedim Recap of Levaya on New York - Hagaon Harav Dovid Feinstein, Zt”l

 Hagaon Harav Dovid Feinstein, Zt”l — Chasdei Dovid Hane’emanim 
By Rabbi Binyomin Zev Karman 
Hamodia- “He was a Gaon, a brilliant tamid chacham. Decades ago, his father (Hagaon Harav Moshe, zt”l) attested that “er ken Shas — he knows Shas.” Rav Moshe was measuring it with his own comprehension, and he said Rav Dovid knew it expertly. And he continued learning without pause.
“He was certainly a Posek. Harav Elyashiv, zt”l, considered him the Posek for America. 
“He was ehrlich. The Rosh Yeshivah (Rav Moshe) said, “Du vest nisht gefinen aza ehrliche vi ehm — You will not find another ehrliche person like him.” 

“So what can I add?” Harav Chaim Ganzweig, shlita, the Mashgiach of Mesivta Tiferes Yerushalayim asked the crowd of thousands mourning the loss of Harav Dovid Feinstein, zt”l. “The passuk in Yeshayah (55:3) states, “Chasdei Dovid hane’emanim.” Although the meforshim explain it refers to the kindnesses that Hashem does, which are permanent, I would like to explain, b’derech drush, that it may be going on the chessed that our Rav Dovid performed the entire day.

As Shabbos approaches Klal Yisrael is plunged into mourning  as news comes of the petirah of the Zkan Roshei Hayeshiva and posek hador Harav Dovid ben Rav Moshe Feinstein Zatzal. Chaver moetzes gedolei hatorah of Agudas Yisrael of America. He was 91. Levaya details TBA. Matzav reports Rav Dovid’s passing is a colossal blow to the Olam Hatorah, which has lost its leading light, its preeminent posek, its humble leader, a man who represented the greatness and beauty of Torah while possessing extraordinary scholarship and erudition. Klal Yisroel is bereft. See full story here

 This is the second klop to the olam Hatorah this week with the petira  of the Edison Rosh Yeshiva Harav Yaakov Busel zatzal.

Agudah statement:

Heartbroken at news of passing of Rabbi Dovid Feinstein–Rosh HaYeshiva of Mesivtha Tifereth Jerusalem and Chaver Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah. Agudath Israel and the entire Orthodox community have benefited from his Torah wisdom and guidance for decades–the pain and loss overwhelm.

Plastic Bags, Straws Banned in N.J. as Murphy signs new law

NJ-  Gov. Phil Murphy on Wednesday signed a new law banning businesses from handing out single-use plastic bags, polystyrene food containers, plastic straws and paper bags in New Jersey. The measure, which was passed by state lawmakers in September, is seen as the strictest stance against single-use plastics in the nation. “Plastic bags are one of the most problematic forms of garbage, leading to millions of discarded bags that stream annually into our landfills, rivers, and oceans,” Murphy said in statement. “With today’s historic bill signing, we are addressing the problem of plastic pollution head-on with solutions that will help mitigate climate change and strengthen our environment for future generations.” The new regulations prohibit food service businesses from giving customers single-use plastic bags and polystyrene food containers. The bans apply to a variety of businesses, including restaurants, convenience stores, food trucks, movie theaters and grocery stores that are 2,500 square feet or larger.

"Joe Biden is on track to win this election, and he will be the next president of the United States."
-The Trump campaign is now telling reporters that their data suggests they'll pull off an outright victory in NV and PA, and states like WI & MI are going to end up close enough to trigger a recount (Turx)

Rugy Giuliani- The fake media is refusing to call Florida, Ohio and Georgia so they can maintain a phony lead for Biden. They are as corrupt as the #BidenCrimeFamily.
-Ben Shapiro No, Trump has not already won the election, and it is deeply irresponsible for him to say he has.
-Teams of lawyers leave Washington DC driving to Philadelphia
Legal battle looms as it stands Biden with 225 Trump with 213 with a path to 270.
Trump speaks: going to Supreme court “We want all voting to stop. We don’t want them to find any ballots at 4 o’clock in the morning.”
This is the latest news conference I ever had. A very sad group of people is trying to disenfranchise the millions of people who voted for us. We were/ getting ready to celebrate, we won Florida by a lot the great state of Ohio, Texas. we have won Georgia, North Carolina, have a lot of life in Arizona there's a possibility for it to stay in Play but most importantly we are winning Pennsylvania by a tremendous amount we are winning Michigan, Wisconsin and all of a sudden everything just stopped media refused to call it this is a fraud on the American public, Frankly we did win this election and will go to the supreme court. “We want all voting to stop. We don’t want them to find any ballots at 4 o’clock in the morning.”
