  • A new study complex with seven tents offered overnight Torah classes.
  • The event was organized by the Global Daily Page organization led by Avi Charlaf.
  • Organizers plan to expand the study complex for next year's commemoration.
  • A large event marking the completion of the Talmud is planned for this summer.

This year's commemoration featured a new initiative: a study complex with seven tents where Torah classes were held throughout the night, attended by scholars and students from various communities. The initiative, now in its third year, was organized by the Global Daily Page organization, led by Avi Charlaf.

This yeshiva, along with the Daily Page program, are considered his two main legacies. The study complex aimed to connect the memory of the historical yeshiva with the ongoing Daily Page initiative, establishing temporary study halls near his Jerusalem grave.

Participants from Hasidic, Lithuanian, and Sephardic communities studied together around the Gemara pages throughout the night. The event facilitated a meeting of different communities, echoing the Daily Page's original purpose of providing a shared learning framework for Jews worldwide.

The Global Daily Page organization is already planning to expand the study complex for next year's commemoration, aiming to accommodate more participants. Additionally, the organization is preparing for a large-scale event to mark the completion of the entire Talmud (Siyum HaShas) scheduled for this summer. The anniversary event was coordinated with the Jerusalem Municipality, cemetery authorities, and the police to manage the large number of attendees.
