A Brit Milah, a Jewish circumcision ceremony, was held this week in Bnei Brak for the grandson of the Rebbes of Nadvorna and Modzhitz. The newborn is the son of Rabbi Yosef David Rosenbaum. Following the ceremony, the Rebbes led a Tisch, a gathering with singing and blessings, for the Hassidim, and later joined a celebratory meal with family members.

The article also mentions several other recent events within the Hassidic community. The Satmar Rebbe was reportedly moved by hundreds of young students who were tested on memorizing entire Talmudic tractates. In another event, family members of the Kasho Rebbe gathered for a meal marking the 30th day since the passing of Rebbetzin Hindah Blum. Chabad reported a new record of 984 active branches in Israel, with 68 new emissary families and 40 new Chabad Houses established.

Additionally, the Sanz Rebbe presented a 'Zorba Miderabanan' certificate to his grandson for excelling in Torah studies. The Zvhill Rebbe marked the anniversary of his grandfather's passing with a memorial meal and prayer in Jerusalem. The Dushinsky Rebbe visited the Kasho Rebbe in the United States, and the Kruli Rebbe encouraged his students in Williamsburg to study Torah during the long winter nights. The Tchernebyan Rebbe held a memorial gathering for his father, the late Rebbe of Kretschneff Kiryat Gat. Other events included a wedding celebration for the grandson of the Tcheva Rebbe, a visit by the Tolded Aaron Rebbe to a bereaved widower in Beitar, and the Vizhnitz Rebbe hosting donors for a new synagogue in Ashdod.
