A new Torah scroll was dedicated with great joy for the Breslov Hasidic community in Ramat Beit Shemesh Dalet. The scroll was donated by the Greenwald family in memory of Rabbi Menachem David Greenwald, son of Rabbi Natan Greenwald.

The ceremony to complete the writing of the scroll's letters took place at the home of Rabbi Nachman Greenwald, attended by local rabbis, family members, friends, and public figures. The final letters were inscribed by two elder Breslov rabbis, Rabbi Yaakov Meir Shakter and Rabbi Moshe Kramer.

Following the completion, the Torah scroll was paraded through the streets, led by children carrying torches, accompanied by a large crowd of Hasidim singing and dancing to live music.
