Final preparations are being made for what is expected to be, perhaps, the largest levaya in Israel’s history.
The levaya procession will leave Yeshivat Porat Yosef Yeshiva in Yerushalayim in a little over 2 hours, at 6 p.m., and will make its way to the Sanhedria Bais Hachaim.
Tens of thousands are already making their way to Yerushalayim to attend the levaya.
Magen David Adom emergency personnel are preparing to provide security and medical services during the levaya.
Many of the city’s streets will be closed to traffic and the police have asked motorists to avoid entering and leaving the city if possible.
Hundreds of Yidden were – and still are – at Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital following news of the petirah, many of them crying unabashedly and davening.

Was his father’s name Yakov?
I am sorry, but I don’t get the last comment about yidden and Jews, please explain yourself. Today is a yom tzara for klal yisroel lets not make issues out of nothing. Thank you!
The Word Yid comes from Yehudi
The Word Jew from Judas Iscariot noted as the one who the Christians say was the one of the Twelve Apostles of Yaishu who betrayed him.
Jew or Judis alluded to that anti-semitic fact
I’ll take Yid.
Dacon9- what are you talking about??? I don’t at all understand what you are talking about and why this bothers you (especially while discussing a heartbreaking event). “Yidden” is the yiddish word for Jews. It is, and has been, used by people much greater than you or me for generations.
To #3.
I think that you have some issues that may be able to be rectified through counselling. I would seek professional help as soon as possible.
All Yidden are in mourning today.
To Dacon9. My guess is that you never heard Kriat Megilla. If you did, you would recognize the word Yid. Yid comes from the German word Jude, which is pronounced Yud. This comes from the original Persian, Yehudi. In Arabic it is also called Yehud. It seems that you are not a true Sefaradi, otherwise you would recognize these middle eastern terms. In any case it doesn’t do credit to the Neshama of Chacham Ovadia Z’L.
#8,#11 and all you **ASHKANAZ** YOU GOT IT! I AM NOT A YID.
I AM A JEW FROM ABRAHAM AVEINU, well i guess I should say from YAACOB AVEINU.
I A SEPHARDIC *JEW*,
AND YOU ARE EXCLUDING ‘YOURSELF’
FROM OUR MOTHER TONGUE. **HEBREW** .
FOR THAT MATTER YOU ARE A MARRANO HIDING
SO I SHOULD CALL YOU A MARRANO AFTER ALL USING YOUR ‘EXCUSE’,ITS A SEPHARDIC TERMINOLOGY SO I CAN CALL YOU A MARRANO.
MAYBE I should call you a converso..who knows what you are and what your lineage is.
Maybe I should call you ‘judisch’ or kike
or satan OR ANY OTHER derogatory terms I have been called
YOU ARE A *JEW IS TODAYS ACCEPTABLE TERM FOR HEBREW oh sorry, we are not Hebrews, thats what the pharoah called Moses. Why didnt he call MOshe Rabbeinu ‘ A YID’?
WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ”’ONE”’NATION”’I THINK
UNLESS europe changed that also
LISTEN rebbosai, I MEAN REBBOTAI…
YOU ARE NO LONGER IN THE GHETTOS OF EUROPE.
You are not under roman rule or moslem rule.
YOU/ WE AREUNDER ‘ONE’ G-Ds RULE.
WE ARE JEWS
or if you prefer….
I AM A JEW, AND YOU ARE A YID FROM THE EUROPEAN ASHKANAZI MAYBE RELATED TO THE ONCE KHAZAR PAGANS…..
C’MON…
DEFINE YOURSELF
EITHER WE ARE ‘ONE’ OR YOU ARE A YID,
oh so sorry, you are a marrano, maybe you are VVViddish and not yyyiddish, maybe you are not any of the above but I know one thing..
YOU ARE A JEW FROM YAACOB AVEINU,,,or are ya.
ALSO I KNOW A FEW THINGS FOR SURE…
We do know HASHEM UNDERSTAND all languages
BUT WE HAVE TO LIVE IN THIS WORLD..
NOT EUROPE GHETTOS.
It seems many VViddish speakers do not speak english or hebrew but speak fluent VVIDDISH,,,
WHY???
#11 TRUE SEPHARDI? CAN YOU TECHINICALLY PROVE YOU ARE A TRUE JEW?
SEPHARDIS DO NOT ACCEPT CONVERTS OR ‘half JEWS’
SEPHARDIC RABBIS STILL IN CASE OF MARRIGE STILL CALL THEIR RABBIS TO CONFIRM THEIR LINEAGE…
NOT ONLY AM I A TRUE SEPHARDI BUT
I AM A TRUE KOHAINE
AND A YID ON TOP OF THAT……….
and dont mix issues of mundane chit chat in arabic its called HAKI BALASH WITH A ZTADDIQ.
YOU AS A PREACHER AND A SEER OF WHO IS TRUE THEN YOU SHOULD HAVE LEARNED NOT TO MENTION THE PROFANE WITH HOLINESS OR IS THAT NOT A MARRANO THING….
AS I SAID…
,DONT INSULT ME,
I AM A TRUE YID…..
ATT MATZAV: please foward the check for my rediculous comments to my paypal as ASAP.
Dacon9 escaped from a mental assylum. I hope noone gets hurt. I also hope they find him fast and lock him back up
BY THE WAY #11.
I DOUBT **you** EVER READ THE MEGILLA YOURSELF.
IF **you** DID
YOU WOULD SURELY KNOW THAT…
…. ‘YID’ IS NOT THERE.
VIDDISH WASNT INVENTED THEN.
THE WORD IN HEBREW IS
YEHUD/YEHUDI.
Number 14, You proved my point. I’m sorry to have let the air out of your balloon. You thought Yid came from Khazar Pagans, when it stems from the Megilla. Like the word corner comes from the Hebrew word Keren. The Sefardim in my area (the Marrano Sefardim) speak Persian and Arabic. They hold onto the old country like the Ashkenazim. I don’t know what brand Sefardi you belong to. (By the way the edict not to accept converts is only about 80 years old.) I really enjoy your comments as it shows only ignorance and bias. Keep them coming.
