Almost Daily Jewish Wisdom at Beit Hamidrash of Woodland Hills — Rabbi Eli Schochet z"l. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
He did not let them conserve them or form shools around, so he took a place near CBK when he walked into the shool. He saw that things weren't exactly right. He went to the rabbi. Turns out the rabbi gave him a room downstairs to create a minion for himself. And with that, he got the social family and the Wiener family to create a minion in CBK itself. So, really, he was one of the founding fathers of the shool. We always treated rabbi shock at respect. He used to come to our bankwoods. He knew we had a tremendous amount of our cars that were towed for him. He was instrumental in the school of Kadima, the founding and the continuation of the school of Kadima. He retired. How many years ago did he retire? He can't have one time already, right? Twenty years maybe. Maybe more than twenty. Did he move to North Hollywood? He came very religious in North Hollywood. Did he mentor Merchwood? Yeah.
Show Merchwood. Yeah. So, when on CBK, it was called Merch this way, that way, the other way, he sold property property. But basically, he was the, he was the leader of the shool. His funeral today, if you want information on where it is, let me know. I'll give you the information by shock as fuel. He's also, he had Yichos, right Kenny? They traced his director senate from the yard. Right, the film was gone. He was the director senate from the yard. He had traced his roots to that. You came to see Merchwood. You came to see Merchwood. Thank you, Dr. Dorf, for being familiar with us. I'm going to bless everybody with health and happiness. I'll ask the same number. For much to come on, I'm going to send a salnavi. It was up to Shem 439, is candle lighting.
435. I mean, I was also showing the last thing we're talking about. The touchdown is with regards to the blessings. And it says the importance of saying Bukkota to Ah. The three blessings that we say in the morning, Bukkota, which gives you the ability to learn Torah all day long, and Bukkota Ah. And it's so important to say them and to have them with Kavanaugh. When you look at the first temple, it says, one of the reasons that the first temple was destroyed. And Hashem answers because there was Torah learning and everything. But he says, Hashem answers to even the Navi nobody could figure it out. Hashem says, all of us is vomit or deep because they left my Torah. But in a second, there's a lot of Torah learning. It did the broth on the Torah, the importance of the Torah. It was really not that important. When if you're going to say Bukkota Torah, it should be important to you to the learning Torah. You should ask Hashem that you should be able to feel the sweetness of the Torah. And this is what it means that they didn't bless on my Torah. It wasn't that important to them.
Also when you were in the three blessings that we're saying. And in the blessing also, we ask that we and our kids and our grandkids should be toiling in Torah. It's an important thing also to have in mind when you say Bukkota, is to think of your kids and to think of your grandkids that they will go in the way of Torah.
