1. Hey! What about taking the DNA test to see if they have the special Strand of Kohanim?!
   Just curious, how they know for sure its their GF? If there is Mesorah on their KY Status, that should outweigh the mesorah on the Kever.
   Also, how did they fall upon this “discovery”? And say they know for sure it is their GF, how many cases do we find reinstated Headstones? Or is it just one more case of the “kids knowing better than the father”?
   BTW… My GGGGGGGF davened Ashkenaz… 🙂

2. צע״ג שלכאורה יותר מסתבר לומר שיש טעות על הקבר מלומר שדור שלם טעה. אם אפשר ל׳פאסט׳ יותר פרטים אשמך! למה בכלל הם חשבו שהם כהנים? הרי מסתמא כך קיבלו מאבותם, הרי אסור לזר לעלת לדוחן….

11. עם הערץ! גם לוי פטור מפדיון הבן

12. Hard to believe anyone would let the media know, this is a humiliating demotion for a family that have been geting kohain and duchening for generations.
    The only solace is that there are far fewer leviim and he’ll get levi every day!
    At least until more kohanim fess up!

13. number 9. if u were a real kohen u would know that leviim dont get pidyon haben!

14. if its not a rappaport or katz mishpach they have to check the yichus

15. We are dealing with numerous generations of gravestones and this is why the psak was to change

16. Why don’t you post my comment?

17. Gimpel If you would realize that your job is to be Ovaid Hashem then you wouldn’t look at this as humiliating rather this is what Hashem wants! And this is a true kiddush Hashem to accept this. What would you do??
