After most of the crowd dispersed and the media cameras left, a group of Jews remained at the fresh gravesites of Eyal Yifrach, Naftali Frankel and Gilad Shaar, H”YD on Tuesday.
The cold-blooded murder of the three Jewish teens, trying to head home from yeshiva for Shabbos, has shocked the entire Israel and Jewish communities abroad.
Trying to express their emotion and deep sorrow, the group gathered at Modiin cemetery in central Israel, and sang the chassidic melody of “Avinu Malkeinu.”
Based on the Jewish prayer recited during the High Holidays, the tune of “Our Father, Our King” is attributed to Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, the Alter Rebbe and founder of Chabad chassidism.
The Talmud (Ta’anith 25b) relates that the great Jewish sage Rabbi Akiva recited two verses each beginning “Our Father, Our King” in a prayer to end a drought.
It was the feelings of those who sang the niggun that Hashem should put an end to Jewish suffering and bring the ultimate and final redemption speedily in our days.
Heart wrenching! Hope, Faith, grieving with respect and honor.as Jews have done for generations.
I can say only thing: we need moshiach now, now, now; now.
Mi kamcha Yisroel. Hashem please send moshiach now
vayishma… naakosom, a primal groan, unable to articulate our suffering.
moshiach now
And ashem hear the pain and suffering from the ydn in mizraym … he with his own hand going to take us all feom this gules!!!
I was there. I tried singing but was to choked up. It’s so painful!!! Enough is enough!!! We need Moshiach NOW!!!
MOSHIACH NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my heart swelled with pride and fresh tears fell for our holy martyrs. Hashem we love you. You are truly Dayan HoEmes. Please hasten the Geula so we can Understand, and can be reunited with our loved ones
זה ממש מרגש .הקב״ה אנו רוצים משיח עכשיו
Am Yisroe-l Chai We want Moshiach now
Heart wrenching, literally tears the heart out; and with all their pain, tears, heartbreak, they still call out “Ovinu Malkainu”.
May He hear their pleas, our pleas, finally . . . .
We need to bring the Geulah!
You see how the jewish people act in times like this, we don’t kill and go mad, we pray and we sing to Hashem, we act like angels. The one who got killed was probably killed by his own, and then they will blame the Jews, what a contrast, them and real holy people.
Am Yisroel chai.
Wow ! Just wow!
Wow, this is unbelievable.
Mi K”amcha yisroel – even through the deepest pain we still believe that Hashem is our King.
AD Mosai!!
