[PHOTO LINK BELOW] Rabbi Kopelman Shlita, viewed as the elder statesman of roshei yeshiva around the world, 104, arrived in Eretz Yisrael on Sunday to take part in the chasunah of a talmid.
Rabbi Kopelman, who is rosh yeshiva in Lucerne, Switzerland, attended the chasnah in the Nof Illit Hall. The rosh yeshiva gave a dvar torah during the simcha – while hundreds of Yeshiva Bochrim & Roshei Yeshiva packed the room.

Boruch Hashem for simchas! Bli ayin hora. May Hashem bentch him and grant him many more years of health and strength.
Hashem has given the world a precious gift. Halevai that He allows us the use of this gift for many more years. Rav Kopelman is a mechanech and talmid chochom par excellence.
Bli Ayin Hara- He should be gezunt ad meah v’esrim shanah, and he should be zoche to greet moshiach bimheira byameinu!
