    REUVEN REVIEW YOUR WINDOW INTO THE WORLD OF YESHIVA KETANA OHR REUVEN… 4:13 p.m. Vol. 5 Issue #10 December 14, 17 כו‘ כסלו תשע"ח Maran Hagaon Harav Aharon Leib Steinman, Zt”l The chareidi world was plunged into mourning Tuesday with the petirah of the Rosh Yeshivah, Maran Hagaon Harav Aharon Leib Steinman, zt”l. Hundreds of thousands of brokenheart- ed, freshly orphaned Jews streamed to Rechov Chazon Ish in Bnei Brak Tuesday for the levayah of the Gadol Hador, the senior Rosh Yeshivah, a light in the dark- ness of the galus, Maran Hagaon Harav Aharon Leib Shteinman, zt”l. As the terrible news spread of Rav Shteinman’s passing shortly before 8:00 a.m. in Bnei Brak, Jews from across Israel began flooding all roads as they headed to Rechov Chazon Ish, toward the same home that had been the address for Jews from across the world seeking daas Torah, a brachah, a solution to a personal tzarah. Hagaon Harav Gershon Edelstein, shlita, had called on all bachurim from yeshivos keta- nos and yeshivos gedolos to take part in the levayah, and indeed, it seemed as if just about every Torah Jew attended. Please see attached biography taken from the Hamodia. וכל בית ישראל יבכו את השריפה אשר שרף ה' The Rosh Hayeshiva giving a hesped on Rav Shteiman zt”l to the 7th & 8th grade talmidim Haschalos Chumash Celebration The first graders Haschalos Chumash Celebration was a pleas- ure to behold from the moment the talmidim entered the au- ditorium, eager to perform the eagerly anticipated event.

Baruch Hash-m, our growth is not only in the physical realm, but in the spiritual as well. We have increased the depth and breadth of our programming for both the men and the very worthy women of our community. What is the secret of our success? Deep down in every Jewish soul is a yearning for the truth. Once the soul is exposed to Torah, it seeks to delve deeper. At Yeshiva Ner Boruch (PTI) and Ateres Bracha (NEVE-PTI), we have taken up the initial challenge to ignite that spark, the Ohr Torah that is also symbolic of the Yontif of Chanukah, which we will soon celebrate. The message of Chanukah is clear. The Greeks did not want to harm our physical bodies; they wanted to destroy our spiritual fiber.
