Picture of the Day: First Tefilin in 89 Years

During a recent conference for European rabbis, Russia’s Chief Rabbi Berel Lazar greeted a 102-year-old Jewish Holocaust survivor, who informed him that he had not put on Tefilin since his Bar Mitzvah in 1926! The chief rabbi immediately helped the man put on Tefilin and say a prayer, which the man did with tears in his eyes.
