In an emotional and uplifting moment for his family and תלמידים, Rav Yitzchak Hacker, rosh yeshiva of Yeshivas Grodna in Be’er Yaakov and a member of the Degel Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah, attended his grandson’s wedding this evening after having been in serious condition for several months.

The chasunah took place at the Heichalei Malchus Hall in Bnei Brak. This marked the first time the Rosh Yeshiva has appeared publicly since his health crisis, bringing great excitement and gratitude among his talmidim.

Rav Hacker arrived for the chuppah and was honored with reciting brachah acharita. Following the chuppah, he remained at the chasunah and joined in the dancing.

The chosson is a grandson of Rav Yitzchak Hacker and also a grandson of Rav Tzvi Rotberg, rosh yeshiva of Yeshivas Beis Meir. He is a son of Rav Tuvia Rotberg, a ram at Yeshivas Beis Meir. The kallah is the daughter of Rav Yaakov Sokolovsky of Yerushalayim.

The Rosh Yeshiva’s presence at the simchah, after a prolonged period of serious illness, was seen as a moving and hopeful moment for his family, talmidim, and the broader Torah community.
