Another Wonderful Initiative

Bochurim have been immersed in Limud HaTorah for the past six months. To assist a Bochur in properly maintaining that Yeshiva atmosphere until he returns after Yom-Tov, Vaad Talmidei Hatmimim once again published a beautiful booklet loaded with material in Niglah, Halacha, Chassidus, Moshiach, Chassidishe stories etc. to be studied over Pesach.

Many Roshei-Yeshivah have applauded this project and were instrumental in compiling the material in the Kovetz. The material is split up in to three weekly segments each having a selection of relevant and interesting topics.

Did you say the ‘Nasi’ Today? (Yom Gimel)

From the Safer Haminhagim: [Every day from Rosh Chodesh Nissan until the twelfth of the month, usually after Shacharis,] one reads the passage [from Bamidbar 7-8:4] that describes the offering brought on that day by a particular Nasi, or tribal prince, for the dedication of the altar of the Mishkan. [In common parlance, each day’s passage itself is often referred to as “the Nasi.”] This daily reading is followed by the prayer which opens with the words yehi ratzon (and which appears in Siddur Torah Or [as well as in Siddur Tehillat HaShem, p. 371]). This prayer is recited even by a Kohen or a Levi [despite its seeming relevance only to tribes other than the Tribe of Levi]. [284]
