    • ZT”L means that when a tzaddik passes away we should remember him levorcha. So by a tzaddik we say Z”L meaning his remebrance should be levorcha (in the possessive form) indicating he was a tzaddik. But by a non tzaddik we use A”H and not Z”L.

  1. Oish, Nebech. BdE. What a loss. This was a prince of a yid. A Talmid Chochom, a Marbitz Torah, a Ruv of a Young, vibrant kehilla. This is so sad. He leaves behind a family, talmidim, and mispalelim, all bereft. Imagine that, there are hundreds of people mourning this loss.
