Rav Paysach Krohn - Tu B'Av Together 2026

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Paysach Krohn’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

I would like to encourage all of you to be involved in the Tu B'Av Together program, which means that on Tu B'Av we're all going to daven together [music] for people that need shidduchim. I want to tell you a story now, a wonderful story about shidduchim that will encourage people >> [music] >> to get involved and even young men going out with girls that are older than them. But the main idea [music] of this program is to get people to daven together on Tu B'Av for shidduchim for anybody that you know that needs a shidduch. I took a group [music] of 70 people from America, Canada, and Eretz Yisrael, mixture from all over, and we [music] went to three cities that at one point in Klal Yisrael were very prominent as far as Yiddishkeit was concerned. One was Frankfurt, the other was Prague, and the third one was Vienna. Now, when we were in Frankfurt, we went to the [music] kever of Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch. Of course, Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch was a great [music] talmid chacham, the great writer, the great speaker, the great person who influenced thousands of Yidden and elevated them. >> [music] >> And we were at his kever, and I pointed out to the people that he's buried [music] right next to his wife, Chana Yudel. I hope I'm pronouncing it right, [music] Chana Yudel. And I said to the people, "Take a look. His wife [music] was older than he was.
