BH The Cave of the Sages prayer trek completed

BH 🕊️ The Cave of the Sages – Safed (Tzfat), Israel 🕊️

Today I stood before the מערת חכמי צפת — The Cave of the Sages of Safed, a humble stone enclosure that holds centuries of spiritual brilliance. Beneath this ground are buried some of the greatest Torah luminaries, mystics, and halachic leaders of our people — many of whose names still echo through Jewish learning to this day.

Among them:

✨ The Alshich HaKadosh – brilliant commentator and student of the Beit Yosef

✨ Rabbi Shmuel Heller – Chief Rabbi of Safed for 60+ years

✨ Rabbi Avraham Dov of Avritch – the Bat Ayin, whose longing for holiness burned like fire

✨ Rabbi Yaakov Berav – who tried to revive rabbinic semicha in the 16th century

✨ And dozens more, including Kabbalists, Chassidic rebbes, and hidden tzaddikim…

This site is not just historic — it’s alive with prayer. You feel it in the air: the density of devotion, the quiet footsteps of seekers, the whispers between stone and soul. It’s a place where the weight of memory becomes a kind of invitation:

→ To return inward.

→ To honor those who labored to preserve the inner and outer teachings of Torah.

→ To walk with humility in their footsteps.

🕯️ May the merit of these sages guide us to live with more wisdom, integrity, and awe.

And may the light of Safed — the city of mystics — keep radiating through the generations.
