Uman Rosh haShana
15 Dec 2008
Question: Should I leave Israel to go to Uman on Rosh HaShana?
Answer: One should not leave Israel to go to Uman. Rav Kook pointed out that there are enough gravesites of tzadiikim in Eretz Yisrael, and therefore leaving Eretz Yisrael for such a purpose is inappropriate.
