The story · English

Rabbi Aharon Yehoshua Soloveitchik, head of the Brisk Yeshiva, has returned to deliver his lessons at the yeshiva for the first time since suffering serious health issues over the summer. With the start of the Elul period, a time of spiritual preparation before the High Holidays, Rabbi Soloveitchik appeared in the yeshiva hall to resume teaching, bringing great joy and hope to the students and faculty. Rumors had circulated in recent days that he would soon begin his classes and reside in his new apartment adjacent to the yeshiva building, but no official confirmation had been made until today. Despite expectations that lessons would only restart later in the week, Rabbi Soloveitchik surprised the community by arriving on Monday to personally deliver his shiur (lesson). Exclusive footage captured his entrance into the yeshiva hall, marking a significant moment for the institution and its followers.
