A young child, Israel Dan Taub, a descendant of the Modzhitz and Lelov Jerusalem Hasidic dynasties, passed away shortly before the Sabbath began. The three-year-old boy died at Hadassah Ein Kerem Medical Center in Jerusalem after suffering from a serious illness. He was the son of Rabbi Shmuel Zvi Hirsch Taub, the youngest son of the Rebbe of Modzhitz, and the daughter of the Rebbe of Lelov Jerusalem. The child was named Israel Dan in memory of his great-grandfather, the "Nachlat Dan" Rebbe of Modzhitz. Many prayed for his recovery during his illness, but he ultimately returned his soul to his creator just before Shabbat, leaving behind a grieving family and Hasidic community.
