תורה תורה חגרי שק

Baruch Dayan Ha'emes, we regret to inform you of the petirah of Harav Itamar Schwartz ZT"L, author of the Bilvavi Mishkan Evneh series, who was niftar over Shabbos at the age of 50.

A talmid of Ponevezh Yeshiva and a marbitz Torah, Rav Schwartz became known for his sefarim and shiurim on emunah, mussar and avodas Hashem, helping talmidim build their inner life and connection with Hashem.

His Bilvavi Mishkan Evneh series began without his name being widely publicized. His recorded shiurim were transcribed and edited into many volumes, reaching readers in Eretz Yisroel and around the world.

Alongside Bilvavi Mishkan Evneh, he wrote on self-knowledge, emotions, tefillah and the Jewish calendar. His Torah spread through recordings, printed sefarim and English translations.

Yehi Zichro Boruch.
