In a fresh development, Beit Din Rabbanei Chabad of Eretz Hakodesh, the central Rabbinic organization established by the Rebbe to lead all Chabad matters in the Eretz Yisroel, has announced its expansion with the addition of six esteemed rabbonim from across the land.
The newly appointed Rabbonim are:
Rabbi Meir Ashkenazi, Rov of Kfar Chabad
Rabbi Mordechai Bistritzky, Rov of the Anash community in Tzfas
Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Wolosow, Rov of Ramat Yishai
Rabbi Shneur Zalman Yaroslavsky, Rov of the Anash community in Elad
Rabbi Yaakov Mendelson, Rov of the Anash community in Arad
Rabbi Chaim Kizhner, Rov of the Anash community in Emmanuel
Since its establishment in 5736 by direct instruction of the Rebbe, Beit Din Rabbanei Chabad would vote in new members at a meeting, and the decision was then sent to the Rebbe for approval.
Before Gimmel Tammuz, members appointed through this process included Rabbi Menachem Mendel Gluckowsky of Rechovot, Rabbi Yochanan Gurary of Chulon, and Rabbi Yosef Hecht of Eilat. Following Gimmel Tammuz, Rabbi Moshe Havlin of Kiryat Gat and Rabbi Yisroel Yosef Hendel of Migdal Haemek joined, adding to the long-serving members, Rabbi Yehuda Yaroslavsky and Rabbi Michoel Halperin.
This expansion reflects the growing needs of the Anash community, and the dedication of the Beis Din to provide up-to-date guidance. The new members bring a wealth of knowledge and experience, and will no doubt elevate the Anash communities throughout Eretz Yisroel.
