As Elul is upon us, and the blasts of shofar awaken us, Yeshivas Tomchei Tmimim Queens is Zoiche to be the first Tomchei Temimim to begin in the America.
To the smell of fresh paint, and new furniture, the Temimim arrive with Seforim and Meforshim on Masseches Psachim!
The new Zman began with a Hisorerus talk by the Menahel Rabbi Yosef HaCohen Hendel inspiring the Tmimim to diligently throw themselves into Torah and Avoda with the Chayus of this special Tekufa. Rabbi Menachem Mendel HaCohen Hendel of the Vaad introduced the chief Rabbi of Be’er Sheva and Av of Batei Hadin in Be’er Sheva Rabbi Avrohom Deri who inspired the Bochurim to Limud Hatorah with a Koch and Geshmak, with a fire and zest!
Rabbi Mendel Yusewitz of the Vaad Hapoel translated the Chidushei Torah and broke it down for the Bochurim, then Rabbi Deri shared the special Zechus his family is blessed with a special connection to the Rebbe and Tomchei Tmimim.
When the Rebbe’s Shliach to Morroco Rabbi Michoel Lipsker was planning to embark on the Shlichus, the Frierdiker Rebbe asked the leader of Moroccan jewry in Meknes Rabbi Boruch Yitzchok Tolidano to see that a yungerman help the shliach’s initiatives. Rabbi Deri’s grandfather Rabbi Yitzchok Tolidano was chosen. He actually took his dowry – expensive equipment to establish a printing press, and used it to fund the first Tomchei Temimim in Morroco “we feel it is in that Zechut that our grandfather bore so many Talmidei Chachamim – like the son-in-law of Rabbi Ovadia Yossef OBM.”
He inspired the Temimim with their Avoda as “Cheiylot Beit David” as the ultimate “Bnei Maron” bringing Moshiach Now!
