The story · English

The annual major gathering of hundreds of rabbis, dayanim (religious judges), and Torah teachers took place this year at the Breslov Hasidic study hall in Bnei Brak. The event featured the renowned dayan Rabbi Yaakov Meir Stern, the dayan and posek of Vizhnitz, who delivered extensive Torah teachings and halachic guidance on contemporary issues. Among the distinguished attendees were Rabbi Israel Berzovsky, son of the Slonim Rebbe and Av Beit Din of Beitar, Rabbi Elazar Stern, Av Beit Din of Meron, Rabbi Aharon Tosig, Av Beit Din of Yesodot, and many other prominent rabbis from various sectors of the Haredi community.

A highlight of the event was the presence of Rabbi David Rokach, the prodigious grandson of the Belz Rebbe, who participated and sat among the rabbis for an extended period. The conference also included professional medical experts who presented on the medical aspects related to halacha today, providing a multidisciplinary perspective on current issues.

Following the main lecture, hundreds of rabbis and Torah authorities spent over an hour receiving blessings from Rabbi Stern and engaging in halachic discussions and questions relevant to the present time. The event reaffirmed its status as a central annual forum for Torah scholarship and halachic leadership within the ultra-Orthodox world.
