Four prominent elderly scholars will gather at Rachel's Tomb on Thursday, November 13, the anniversary of the matriarch's passing, for a special prayer ceremony. The rabbis, identified as Rabbi Avraham Salim, Rabbi Yisrael Gantz, Rabbi Michel Zilber, and Rabbi Naftali Nussbaum, are coming specifically for donors to the "Kupat Ha'ir" charity. They will convene a special rabbinical court, pray for each individual donor by name, and then sign a "Great Salvation Document at Rachel's Tomb." The document will include teachings from the "Gra" (Rabbi Eliyahu of Vilna) stating that Rachel's Tomb is the primary site of divine presence today, and will also acknowledge the merit of donations made to "Kupat Ha'ir" during the month of November. The event is described as a rare occasion combining the merit of Torah study, prayer at Rachel's Tomb, and charity, with hopes for great salvation, joy, health, and livelihood. The article also includes a separate, unrelated plea for help from an influential figure, Rabbi Y. Deutsch, regarding "25 'Holocaust children' rescued from a pure heart."
