Dear p. Avrom Cohen, who compiled and edited the book of memories at the time was a student of my father, Rabbi Yitzchak Zilber zatsal, and was in close contact with him. After the death of his father, of blessed memory of the righteous, and he had many conversations with old friends of Rabbi Yitzchak, and with his disciples who knew him here, in Israel and in Russia. He collected and processed them stories about his meetings with his father, collaborative works, lessons and discussions on various topics ... Avrom R. Cohen has done a lot of work, and I hope it will be for the benefit of society. What can I say about the reliability of published in a book of short stories?

But, definitely, I can say that know his father in the general spirit of these stories. I think that they are true to recreate his image. Of course, given in the book of tips and tricks father individuals we should not be perceived as Alah and because it is a transfer of the second word, and because they are specific to individual situations. The same applies to the described actions and the actions of his father zatsal. A few more words about the river. Avrom Cohen.

This organization has been so necessary and productive that its branches in many cities in Israel after only a few years after the opening of the first count I ate "Toldos Yeshurun" came to learn Torah thousands of people. As a father zatsal wished that every Jew from Russia who wants to study the Torah, had the opportunity. Let Gd will send a blessing p. Avromu Cohen in his good deeds.

I've always tried not to make comments and people do not say anything bad, not "educate" - that's my principle. The only time in the camp of one overturned barrel of water, which I dragged the whole day, I asked, "Why?" - And immediately regretted ... You would have done that? Climbed to fight? And I said just one word, and immediately regretted, and then had a lot of trouble ... And I say to everyone: do not touch, do not cling to, and do not make comments! Rav Zilber
