Mr. Ablov holds a B.A. in Middle Eastern studies and international relations and an M.A. in Middle Eastern studies, specializing in inter-cultural negotiations for peace in the Middle East, both from the Hebrew University. He also attended the Excellence program of the Jewish Statesmanship Center in Jerusalem in 2011. Mr. Ablov has worked as a reporter and editor of news programs and other productions for Israeli television channels 2 and 10. Before joining Minister Bennett, he was the political commentator for the Israeli liberal-conservative Mida web site. Talia Alster Israel Talia Alster has been a student at the Hebrew University for the past four years; she is working to obtain her medical degree and has completed research internships and rotations in ophthalmology and cardiology. She is a proud graduate of the Amirim Honors Program of the Humanities Faculty at HUJI and a former dean-awarded student in the classics department. She was editor-in-chief of the Amirim academic journal. It is possible that Talia may confuse some English with Nepali words, as she has spent almost five months of this past year in rural Nepal, volunteering through a Jewish non-governmental organization with the local Nepali community in fields of public health and women’s empowerment.

  • Simchas Torah & a Lost Minhag of the Gra,Kol Nidrei, Choirs, And
    Simchas Torah & a Lost Minhag of the Gra Simchas Torah & a Lost Minhag of the Gra By Eliezer Brodt Chol HaMoed Succos is the Yarzheit of the Vilna Gaon (for an earlier post on the Gra see here and here). In this post I hope to show a source for a “forgotten” Minhag of the Gra. In 1921 the great bibliographer (and much more) Yitzchak Rivkind described a strange custom he saw during the time he learned in Volozhin (after it was reopened and headed by R’ Rephael Shapiro), in an article about Minhag HaGra. On Simchas Torah they would open the Aron Kodesh when saying Aleinu, both at night and during the day, and while singing the Niggun of Mussaf of Yom Kippur would bow on the floor exactly like we do on Rosh Hashonah and Yom Kippur. When he asked for the source of this Minhag he was told it comes from the Gra. When he visited Vilna sometime later he found the only place that they observed this unique Minhag was in the Kloiz of the Gra, but nowhere else in Vilna.[1] In 1933 R’ Meir Bar Ilan printed his memoirs in Yiddish for the first time (in book form); in it he describes the great Simcha in Volozhin on Simchas Torah, that of his father the Netziv and of the Talmidim. He then writes that when they got to Aleinu they would open the Aron and with Niggun of Mussaf of Yom Kippur would sing and bow on the floor exactly like we do on Rosh Hashonah and Yom Kippur.[2] However, this custom is not mentioned in the Maaseh Rav or any of the other collections of Minhagim of the Gra.
