The Grand Rabbi of Belz visited the tomb of his father, the previous Grand Rabbi of Belz, in the Tiberias cemetery on Thursday. The Rabbi traveled from Jerusalem to the site, where a special ramp had been constructed.

During prayers at the tomb, the Grand Rabbi of Belz spoke about his father's connection to the Belz Hasidic dynasty, noting his awareness of Belz before its destruction in the Holocaust and its subsequent rebuilding. He expressed a desire for his father to pray for the community's continued success and for Belz to flourish as it once did.

He concluded by praying that God would help the community fulfill His will and that Belz would shine again. Afterward, the Rabbi visited a new guesthouse for students of the Baal Shem Tov near the tomb, where he held a celebratory toast with managers Rabbi Abraham Isser Brisk and Rabbi Hillel Friedman. The Grand Rabbi also offered a prayer at the tomb of the Shelah HaKadosh.
