In memory and appreciation of Rabbi MORDECHAI-TZEMEK ELIYAHU,
who left this world two weeks ago, at age 81.
Rabbi Eliyahu was one of the leading sages in the state of Israel in the last sixty years,
a major judge of Jewish law for the Sephardic communities,
a former chief rabbi of Israel and --not so publicly known-- an accomplished Kabbalist.
The staff of Kabbala Online and of Ascent-of-Safed especially wishes to extend
blessings of condolence to his son, Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu,
who we know from his two decades of service as chief Rabbi of Safed,
and his active and enthusiastic participation in many Ascent outreach activities.
