The story · English

In a deeply moving midnight prayer session, the Lubavitcher Rebbe of the Shvat Halevi community gathered with his students in the yeshiva hall. The event, known as Tikun Chatzot, is a traditional Jewish midnight prayer ritual expressing mourning and spiritual yearning. During the session, the Rebbe was visibly emotional, shedding tears alongside the students as they engaged in heartfelt prayers. The gathering was marked by a profound atmosphere of devotion and communal solidarity, emphasizing the spiritual connection between the Rebbe and his followers. Photographs from the event, taken by Shuki Lerer, capture the intensity and solemnity of the moment. This annual or periodic ritual continues to be a significant spiritual practice within the Shvat Halevi community, reinforcing their religious commitment and unity.
