Question
Congratulations!! Truly, “grapes of the vine with grapes of the vine”… who would have believed it?
Answer
Thank you very much.

I assume the good wishes refer to my daughter’s engagement to the son of Rabbi Yaakov Levanon of Har Hamor. “The tribes were permitted,” because all the heads and yeshiva lecturers of Har Hamor are this young man’s uncles. (By the way, a lovely family.) Wishing all of us success. 🙂
Mazal tov!
Oh, mazal tov!
And since Rabbi Michael Abraham was born in Haifa and Rabbi Yaakov Levanon was born in Kiryat Motzkin, it would be fitting to say here: “grapes of Haifa with grapes of Kiryat Motzkin” — a fine and well-received thing 🙂
Best regards, Shtz
Many thanks
Mazal tov!
Actually, after saying mazal tov I thought to ask: don’t we hold that “Israel is not governed by mazal”? What, then, do people actually mean by the wish “mazal tov”?
What is this referring to?
