Pictures of Rav Yosef Moshe, buried in Haifa; Rav Haim Haikel—a Shov of Piratin. Rav Shalom Shechna, buried in Tiberias. Rav Asher Yehezkel, buried in Jerusalem. There is no picture of the 5th son, Rav Mordechai Dov, rabbi in Vitebsk. Rabbi Yeshayahu Horowitz was a follower of the Tzemach Tzedek of Lubavitch. For decades after marrying his wife they did not have children, but when he was 75 during one of his visits to Lubavitch he sat at the edge of a number ofchassidim in the beit midrash of the Rebbe, and suddenly the mazkir asked him to come to the rebbe’s office. The Rebbe said that “it occurred to me in a moment of blessing that you ought to divorce your wife and marry my relative Bielka and then you would have sons.” Following the expressed wish of the Tzemach Tzedek, he divorced his first wife and gave her half his money, and married the Tzemach Tzedek’s niece, Marat Beila. The wedding took place in Lubavitch, and the Tzemach Tzedek participated in the seudat mitzvah and said a dvarchassidi that opened with “Roni Akara Lo Yalada.” After the wedding he returned to live in Bishenkovitz, and then after giving birth to 5 sons RavYeshaya died, and he is buried in his local cemetery, and then his wife and children immigrated to Israel according to the instruction of the Tzemach Tzedek. The picture is in a matching cardboard frame. Various stains, generally good condition.
