Rabbi Benjamin Finkel Leads Prayer for Matches During Sukkot Ritual

Rabbi Benjamin Finkel, known as "Rabbi Benjamin the Righteous" and the spiritual supervisor of the Mir Yeshiva, will lead a special prayer for singles seeking a suitable match during the Sukkot holiday. The prayer will take place on the night of Hoshana Rabbah, a significant time according to Kabbalistic texts, between midnight and the ritual of beating the Aravah (willow branches).

This prayer is considered a rare opportunity, with sources in Kabbalistic literature describing a potent spiritual merit during this specific time. Rabbi Finkel, alongside thousands of students from 'Rina Shel Torah' (Song of Torah), will pray for each individual's speedy and easy marriage. The ritual involves praying while beating the Aravah branches, invoking the plea 'Hoshana' (Save us).

This initiative is part of the 'Z'aka V'yeshua' (Cry and Salvation) event organized by 'Rina Shel Torah'. Last year, many participants who received a personal blessing from Rabbi Finkel reported finding matches, with numerous 'Mazal Tov' announcements appearing in the Haredi press.

Rabbi Finkel, whose blessings are said to influence many worldwide, will act as a special emissary, praying with deep sincerity for all those awaiting marriage to find a match from their soul's root this year. The event aims to address the widespread distress over finding suitable partners in many Israeli homes.
