Prominent Rabbis Visit Rabbi Bergman During Sukkot Holiday

Throughout the Sukkot holiday, numerous prominent figures from the Jewish community, including leading rabbis, yeshiva deans, and Torah scholars, visited the residence of Rabbi M.Z. Bergman, Rosh Yeshiva, to offer holiday greetings and receive blessings. On the eve of Hoshana Rabbah, a festive gathering was held at his home with students and the public in attendance. During the event, Rabbi Bergman delivered a speech discussing current events and divine providence.

Rabbi Bergman spoke of "open miracles" occurring in recent times, stating that despite threats from adversaries, God protects the Jewish people. He cited a recent incident involving an airplane as an example of a "great miracle" that could have ended in disaster. He emphasized that the community is engaged in a "true war" for the preservation of Torah study and its scholars, noting the dedication of students and married scholars who "sacrifice their lives" for this cause.

Addressing the current political climate, Rabbi Bergman urged his audience to focus on Torah study rather than political matters. He stated that their role is to "sit and learn Torah" and do what is necessary, but the primary focus should remain on study. He expressed faith in the eternal promise that "it will not be forgotten from the mouth of its offspring," asserting that the sanctity of the Torah will ultimately prevail, independent of any external factors.
