YWN regrets to inform you of the sudden Petira of Rav Yosef (Seffie) Betzalel Rabinowitz zt”l, who was the tenth grade Rebbe the Kamenitz Yeshiva in Flatbush.
Rabbi Rabinowitz suffered a heart attack on Thursday morning, and was niftar a short time later, while his talmidim were waiting for him to arrive for shiur.
The levaya will be held tomorrow (Friday) at 9:30AM at Yeshiva Toras Emes Kamenitz, located at 1904 Avenue N in Flatbush.
The family will be sitting shivah at 2078 New York Avenue in Flatbush.

Baruch Dayan Emes. I went to yeshiva with him. A wonderful man…
Rabbi Rabinowitz was an amazing rebbe and person. his warm caring smile will be missed…BDE
I can’t stop crying….What a gem of a man.
We really need to introspect. This community has been hit SOOOO HARD in the last few months!!!
It’s as strong a message as one can get.
Yidden, WAKE UP!!
Chamor HaDor agree with you, that we need to introspect, but much more than that. The Gemara in Sotah says that from the day the Beis HaMikdosh was destroyed there isn’t a day without its curse. In simple English, until the Beis HaMikdosh is standing again we will continue having tragedies. Mourning on the 9th of Av isn’t enough! If we would take the advice of the holy Chofetz Chayim and learn kodshim we would already be in Yerushalayim by now!!!
Baruch Dayan Emes. We lost a giant. Rebby helped me and his hundreds of other Talmidim mold ourselves to be the ehrlich bnai torah that we are. Does anyone know or think if there will be Hespedim today at Levaya?
