sanctified through the deaths of His beloved and holy children. We
feel an added level of thanks to Hashem for enabling us to spread
these words of Torah during these difficult times.

This volume is dedicated to R' Moshe Hezghian zt”l, our esteemed
and loyal friend, a person who exemplified the words of the gemara in
Sanhedrin 88b; his “comings and goings” were all in utmost humility
and self-effacement. He passed away and was taken to his final resting
place on the 16th of Iyar 5781.

R' Hezghian served as treasurer of our foundation in the United
States, and dedicated his life to the twin pursuits of Torah and
chessed. He established a glorious family, and amongst other
accomplishments, built a Beis Knesses that brought many people
closer to Torah. May his memory be blessed.

The skilled and dedicated work of our staff has brought this
volume to completion. Rabbi Moshe Dovid Goldblum edited this
volume with an eye for detail and precision, both halachically and
linguistically. Mrs. R. Schlesinger’s skilled proofreading and review
significantly enhanced the professionalism and consistency of this
volume and the project in its entirety. Mrs. E.M. Friedman took
responsibility for coordination of the many details involved in the
project, and for the final proofing of the work. Mr. Ephrayim Babi
is the efficient typesetter and printer of this volume, and Mrs. Sara
Jaskiel, graphic designer of the beautiful cover. Our appreciation to
all those involved is heartfelt.
