Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's grandson, Shmuel Roth, celebrated his wedding on Sunday evening, a family event held away from the political spotlight. Roth, the son of Netanyahu's daughter Noa Roth and her husband Rabbi Daniel Roth, married at the age of 17 years and one month. The wedding ceremony took place in a small, private event hall in the Mea Shearim neighborhood of Jerusalem, with entry restricted to invited guests only. The young groom, born in October 2009, was raised in a strictly Haredi-Hasidic lifestyle in Jerusalem's Mea Shearim, distant from his grandfather's political activities. His parents adhere to a Haredi lifestyle within the Breslov Hasidic community, and their children were educated in religious institutions, including the Talmud Torah "Darchai Shmuel." The early marriage at 17 is customary in more conservative and extreme Haredi circles in Jerusalem and its surroundings, where marrying at a young age is part of the community's way of life. This is not the first time the grandson has been in the news for a family celebration; four years ago, during Sukkot 5783, he garnered attention at his Bar Mitzvah by completing the entire Babylonian Talmud.
