Satmar Rebbe in the video below states that most of the rabbis that signed the Heter Meah Rabbanim retracted because they found that it was based on lies and fabrications!
The Rebbe gave Markowitz 24 hours to either give a get for the first wife or a get for the second wife. He did not specify directly what the repercussions would be if Markowitz would not abide that directive
Following Markowit'z letter to the SatmarRebbe , R' Aron Teitelbaum, that he won't listen to him and that he has other Rabbis who think differently from him, the R' Aron Teitelbaum convened members of the Satmar Kollel in Kiryat Joel and gave a speech about what happened and explained why Markowitz lives under a severe prohibition of Rabbeinu Gershom and that such prohibitions cannot be overridden by a Heter Meah Rabbanim, and called on Satmar Hasidim to be careful and beware of such people!
Burch Hashem ! Finally some justice for this agunah and her family. I hope she gets her get today.
ReplyDeleteNothing to do with justice for the agunah or compassion for her.
DeleteHe only said that the hetter to remarry was invalid. Husband is free to divorce wife number two and keep wife number one an agunah

ReplyDeleteI agree with you 100% the Rebbe wouldn't care if the first wife remained an agunah !
