Baltimore, MD - Jan. 12, 2021 - In the basement of Khal Ahavas Yisroel Tzemach Tzedek of Baltimore, it was found . The treasure that hundreds were looking for.
When a Rosh Hayeshiva approached Rabbi Yehuda Finkel, shlit”a, and impressed upon him the need for a yeshiva that caters to the many bochurim who leave the walls of yeshiva soon after high school, he was inspired to open Yeshivas Tiferes HaTorah in Baltimore.
This unique yeshiva program, known for its warmth and nonjudgmental acceptance of bochurim across the Orthodox spectrum with a wide range of learning levels meets in Ahavas Yisroel Tzemach Tzedek (Rabbi Heber’s shul) in the morning and evening, accommodating bochurim so they can work in the afternoons.

Business owners nationwide can now register for loans under the second round of the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) through Eastern Union, one of the country’s largest commercial real estate finance firms.
During PPP’s first round in the spring, Eastern Union brokered more than 10,000 loan applications and the allocated funds for PPP were depleted in just a few days.

Eastern has partnered with one of the top 3 PPP lenders in the country, who has the technology and resources to process a high volume of loans. Eastrn Union will again assist borrowers at no cost, which is always restricted as per SBA guidelines.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo asked Pfizer chief executive Albert Bourla on Monday if the state can purchase additional doses of the coronavirus vaccine directly from the company.
In a press conference Monday, Cuomo slammed the Trump administration for the slow rollout of the vaccine, which is providing doses to states.
“The problem was created by the federal negligence in the first place,” he said, according to Fox Business. “The federal government is in control of the supply. They must increase the supply. Approve Johnson & Johnson, expedite that. Buy more Pfizer. Buy more Moderna.”
He added, “As a state, we’re trying to do everything we can. Pfizer is technically not bound by any federal agreement because they did not get engaged in...

Redemption was well under way as the entire country of Egypt had been ravaged by interminable calamities. Once a superpower capable of supporting the entire planet, the Egyptian empire was gradually reduced to rubble. Moshe’s fame was quickly spreading throughout Egypt as popular opinion swung against Pharo’s inflexible policies. However, despite all this rapid change, the Jews remained muted and sidelined. Before the makkot began, the Jews were incapable of rallying around Moshe's call to freedom; they were burdened by their bondage and their spirit was too compressed to believe in a future vision. During the first seven makkot they were invisible. How would this incapacitated people be awakened to the accelerating redemption?
The opening verses of parshat Bo provides th...
