Weekly Yesod Yosef Summery
B”H Yesod Yosef distributed Shabbos assistance to 10 poor families. Two families were assisted as part of the Yesod Yosef Crisis Rescue Program.
Prayers by the Tzadikim
Donors were prayed for by the Kivarim of Rebbe Yehuda bar Iloy, Rebbe Elazar ben Arach, Rebbe Shimon Bar Yochai, Rebbe Yehoshua ben Chananya, Binayahu ben Yehoyada and Binyamin HaTzadik.
This is aside from the name lists that are given along with each distribution and are likely to be mentioned by our recipients at many other Kivrei Tzadikim.
Weekly Tzedaka Torah
In the days of Rabbi Tanchuma there was a drought in Eretz Yisroel. After declaring a few fast days and going unanswered, Rabbi Tanchuma told the people to have mercy one upon the other so Hashem would have mercy on them. They started giving charity to the poor. As they were doing so, they noticed a man giving money to a woman he had divorced. Suspecting him of sin they reported the indecent to Rabbi Tanchuma. Summing the man, Rabbi Tanchuma interrogated him regarding his actions, only to learn that the man had given money to his ex wife simply out of mercy and knowing her dire financial situation. At this point Rabbi Tanchuma raised his hands towards heaven and said, “Master of the Universe, See this man who had no financial obligation to that woman, but as he noticed she’s in trouble, had mercy for her; you are known to have Mercy, and we are the children of Abraham, Yitzchak and Yaakov. Shouldn’t you have mercy for us?” Immediately rain started to fall and the country was supplied with water.
