Today, the new Kolel L’horaah Ma’asis of Crown Heights celebrated the conclusion of Hilchos Mikvaos with a ceremony honoring the achievement of the Yungeleit, who concluded the study of Mikvaos, and successfully completed rigorous tests from Rabbi Gedalya Oberlander and Rabbi Yosef Feigelstock.
The event opened with Rabbi Sholom Shuchat, Rosh Kolel, congratulating the Yungeleit on their achievement, and wishing them success in their learning Ribbis.
Rabbi Shraga Homnick, Sgan Rosh Kolel, followed with a beautiful Dvar Torah, explaining the connection between Mikvaos and Ribbis.
Rabbi Simon Jacobson discussed the Chassidic view on Mikvah and purity, quoting from the Mitteler Rebbe, the Tzemach Tzedek and the Rebbe, and connecting it all to Moshiach.
The closing speech was delivered by Rabbi Yosef Shlomo Greenwald, Menahel of the Kolel, who thanked the Yungeleit for being part of making history, and encouraged them to continue in their studies.
The Yungeleit then each came up to receive a beautiful certificate of completion, signed by Rabbis Shuchat and Homnick, with additional endorsement from Rabbi Aryeh Ralbag, Av Beis Din of Agudas Harabonim, and Rabbi Peretz Steinberg, Av Beis Din of Queens.
Each of the Yungeleit also received as a gift the Sefer Mikvah Kahalacha from Rabbi Feigelstock.
In honor of their concluding the learning of hilchos Mikvaos, the Kolel has published a 300-page book featuring pilpulim and piskei din in various halacha topics, specifically the Halachos of Mikvaos, by various renowned Rabbis from around the world along with the Kolel Yungeleit.
