CHASDEI HASHEM: HaRav Or Shwaka, a paratroopers company commander who was critically wounded while fighting in Lebanon, brought his newborn son into the bris of Avraham Avinu. The baby was named Yehuda Barak. Barak honors Barak Kalfon, Hy”d, a soldier under HaRav Shwaka’s command who fell in the same battle in which his commander was critically wounded. Yehuda expresses the family’s gratitude to Hashem for everything, especially for granting his father the gift of life once again. The child’s name carries both the memory of a fallen hero and profound gratitude for his father’s miraculous survival. “B’damayich chayi...” (“Through your blood, live...”) Join the JustMyIsrael Status!
