Weekly Dee Voch on Newsstands: Parshas Shelach

By Y.M. Lowy

Dee Voch stands with the yidden across Eretz Yisroel. Tragically, the situation has already claimed lives. Hundreds of homes and buildings, including many shuls, have sustained damage.

This week, galleries include the historic Siyum HaShas that took place in RCC for Torascha Sha’ashu’ai; a notable visit from the Gerrer Rebbe to New York, including the Chanukas HaBayis for the new Imrei Emes cheder in Boro Park, Shabbos with supporters in Monsey, and more; Harav Binyomin Zev Landa, Tosh Dayan in Boro Park, and Gedolei Torah convened to clarify the Torah’s perspective on complex medical halacha issues; the wedding in Satmar; the Skolye wedding; the wedding in Skver, Vizhnitz Monsey, Kashau London, and Kosov London; the Bobov wedding;  Toldos Avrohom Yitzchok’s grandchild’s wedding, along wih the Sheva Brachos held in the Rebbe’s home, joined by the Rebbes of Toldos Avrohom Yitzchok, Toldos Aharon, Nachlas Aharon, and Rosh Yeshiva of Toldos Aharon.

The Shrift has extensive on-the-ground coverage from our news team on the unfolding war situation in Eretz Yisroel. First in a conversation with R’ Nachman Frank of Bnei Brak, a ZAKA member and direct witness to the harrowing scenes of the current war.

This is no game, he says. Each time we rush into a shelter, we’re fulfilling the mitzvah of “v’nishmartem me’od l’nafshoseichem.”

It also interviews Rav Aharon Glick, Rav of “Derech Emunah” shul in Bnei Brak whose shul was struck and damaged by a missile that landed on his street.

And with R’ Moshe Aryeh Heilbrun, who shares his personal reflections, war-time observations, and thought-provoking anecdotes.

Thousands of travelers remain stranded, unable to return home. A report from Shabbos in Cyprus, where over a thousand Jews found themselves stuck on their way to Eretz Yisroel. The Shrifts got to have a conversation with the local Chief Rabbi and Chabad shaliach, Rav Aryeh Ze’ev Raskin, exploring alternate options through Egypt, Jordan, or ships departing Cyprus.

The Business Shrift holds a conversation with R’ Yonah Mordechai Weiss, founder of the renowned Mirage shoe company, whose footwear is worn by tens of thousands of Yidden across the globe.

The exciting kids magazine’s Kinder Shrift features an article on Yossele Rosenblatt this week, giving readers a peek into the life of the world-famous chazzan whose voice lit up hearts everywhere.

Back when chazzanus was very popular, many chazzanim became big stars and sadly, some got caught up in fame and forgot who they were. But Yossele was different. He was a fiery, chassidish Yid who stayed true to his values. Even when he came to free and open America, he held strong with incredible strength and never gave in for money or honor.
