Munk Family Hachnosas Sefer Torah

by Eli Greengart

On Sunday, May 1st  the Yeshiva held an Hachnosas Sefer Torah on campus.  The new sefer was written by Rabbi Shlomo Naiman in memory and in honor of Rabbi Herman Naftoli Neuberger zt”l, the long time President of Ner Yisroel.  The sefer was dedicated by the family of Dr. and Mrs. Zev Munk of Houston, TX in memory of Dr. Munk’s parents.  Festivities began with the writing of the final letters of the Sefer Torah by the Yeshiva Rebbeim and Hanhala and members of the Munk family.  Divrei bracha were given by the Rabbi Boruch Neuberger, Dr. Munk as well as by the Rosh HaYeshiva, Moreinu Harav Aharon Feldman shlit”a.  Hundreds of yeshiva talmidim led the procession from the dining room to the Yeshiva Beis Medrash.  Amidst live music and lively singing and dancing the Sefer was brought to its new home inside the Ner Yisroel Aron Kodesh.  Families and children from those who live on the Yeshiva campus as well as from the greater Baltimore community came to watch and participate in this event of Kavod HaTorah.
