Memorializing the Murdered through the Teachings of their Master
The eight young men murdered on March 6, 2008 in Yeshivat Mercaz HaRav in Jerusalem were all fourth or fifth generation students of the revered founder of that Yeshiva, more than eighty years ago, Rav Abraham Isaac Kook. The teachings of Rav Kook emphasize love of the Land of Israel and the People of Israel. I thought it would be especially appropriate to memorialize these boys by perpetuating his teachings. To that end, I plan to deliver a brief weekly lesson, based on his teachings, for the duration of the year of mourning, concluding Rosh Chodesh Adar, 5769.click here
