Secular Descendants of the Shela HaKodesh and the Bnei Yissachar Return

Gedolei Yisroel’s Secular Descendants Returned to Yiddishkeit

Recently two young professionals that attended local public schools and secular colleges were introduced to Rav Yitzchok Fingerer, Mora d’Asra of the Brooklyn Jewish Xperience (BJX). BJX, a muti-faceted successful outreach/inreach organization and Beis Medrash has impacted many lives in the community.

Through Ahavas Yisroel and Torah learning, the Rav and his brother, Rabbi Moshe Fingerer, whet the appetite of [two] young men to learn more and observe Shabbos for the first time. The first young man went to learn in Israel. Upon returning to BJX he shared the fact that he discovered while in Eretz Yisroel that he is a direct descendent (ben acher ben) of the Shela HaKadosh!

In fact, he’s a Levi and shares the same name as the Shela.

Interestingly, the second fellow discovered that he is descendant of the Bnei Yissachar and other Gedolei Yisroel! Can we imagine the sheer simcha of their Heilige Zeides in Shamayim that their Eineklach have come back?
