Rav Elyashiv argues and performed the goral hagra

While neither Rav Shteinman nor Rav Chaim Kanievsky were willing to perform the Goral Hagra due to not being blessed with ruach hakodesh, the goral hagra has still been performed - just not by them.

Rav Binyamin Elyashiv, son of Rav Yosef Shalom Elyashiv zt"l, admits that after being pressured by relatives of one of the abducted boys and by other gedolim he performed the goral hagra this past Monday. Rav Binyamin Elyashiv is also the grandson of Rav Aryeh Levin, who had also performed the goral hagra.

The result of the goral performed by Rav Elyashiv was a passuk regarding Shimshon that indicates the hostages are alive and in the area of Hebron, with positive and optimistic overtures.

When asked about Rav Kanievsky's and Rav Shteinman's comments about why not to perform the goral, Rav Elyashiv responded that his father had said ruach hakodesh is not needed for it - if one had ruach hakodesh, he wouldn't need to perform the goral at all!

  1. The articles state that Rav Binyamin Elyashiv Shlit"a is the son of Rav Yosef Shalom Elyashiv ZT"L - not his grandson.

  2. first i wrote son, then i changed it to grandson based on a different article. fors some reason that seemed to make more sense. I cant find any info in wikipedia pages or other websites I checked. most sites say son, so I will change it back

  5. The English Wikipedia has a box on the side of the page about Rav Yosef Shalom Elyashiv, in it is a listing for Children Moshe Shlomo Avraham Binyamin ...
