Rivlin, Yaakov-Moshe

Son of-Itzhak-Benjamin and Geula. Was born on 28.7.1954 in Jerusalem to parents whose ancestors were among the innovators of the Jewish settlement in the city and from the borders of its borders beyond the walls of the Old City. This awareness of spiritual inheritance accompanied Yaakov Moshe from his childhood and he carried it with pride and a firm decision to commemorate it. When the day comes, and even try and continue in his own way. Yaakov began his studies at the Ma’aleh religious school in Jerusalem. Even then, the tendency to act for the public was revealed. He was elected to the class committee and served as treasurer. He also worked outside the school, such as organizing parties, traveling, etc. At the age of five, Yaakov began to study music – first at the piano and then in accordion and melody, and played at parties and at every opportunity. The celebration of Jacob’s Bar Mitzvah took place in 1967. Under the impression of the great days – the reunification of Jerusalem and the liberation of the Land of Israel – Yaakov continued his initiation into the original Bar Mitzvah sermon in which he expressed the size of the hour in which he celebrated his joining the community Israel began to explore the most remote and hidden areas of the Old City, and in the Greater Land of Israel there was almost no path or site whose feet he did not walk through and which were not recorded with his camera. In his love and enthusiasm for the Land of Israel and its landscapes, he knew how to catch up with his relatives and his family Kim. At the same time was a member of the ‘audience’ – religious Scouts ‘beacons’ in Jerusalem. Passed at all stages accepted: camper, counselor and main counselor. In this activity, he did not see any time or entertainment but rather a “lofty purpose,” as an expression of an argument with the management of the Netiv Meir high school yeshiva, which he had begun to study there when he sought to dissuade him from his activities in the Scouts movement. In the same argument, Yaakov had the upper hand, and he persisted in this educational activity until his last day. In the same struggle with the administration of the yeshiva, Jacob’s character was conspicuously conspicuously attached to a matter which he believed in consistently until the realization of his idea. In the eleventh and twelfth grades of the Nativ Meir yeshiva, Yaakov prepared an anthology and presented the Ministry of Education with a final essay on the subject, which is so close to his Lev: “The beginning of the Jewish community outside the walls.” This connection gave him the 10th grade. After his death, the family published it. In an elegant 182-page book that has been widely distributed and has already been awarded three editions. As Yaakov’s time approached to enlist in the regular army service, in August 1972, he joined the Nahal Brigade, completing his first basic training course at the “Golan” hesder yeshiva in Ramot Magshimim. It was not just a sitting for him. He himself conceived the idea of ​​its founding, and stubbornly worked to realize it, mobilized people and supported and prepared all the necessary tools, until it stood on its own (after a while he also took care of the Hagush yeshiva across the Suez Canal to the west). His poor health did not allow Yaakov to remain at Magshimim. He joined the Nativ Oz group, which was intended for the Lavi farm in the Galilee. From there he was sent to a movement operation and continued his training in the Massuot tribe in Jerusalem. Where he now served as a center. At the same time, he worked to establish additional tribes in distressed neighborhoods in Jerusalem, and in his mind other plans were planned. In the midst of the momentum of educational activity among the youth in Jerusalem, Yaakov Babu was picked on 3 December 1975. He was brought to eternal rest in the cemetery on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem and left behind his parents and brother, ‘Derech Kochav M’Yakov’ ‘The pictures in this book are mostly taken by Yaakov, and the parents donated a Torah scroll to the Hanassi Synagogue.The Scouts, named after him, opens in the Nahlaot neighborhood of Jerusalem. A charity fund was established for Israel in memory of the late Rabbi Ya’akov Moshe Rivlin.
