"Kel na refa na lo (Please God, heal him now)

One of the chassidim approached the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Dov Kook shlit"a from Tiberias and said to him: "Honored Rav, bless Rabbi Berland shlit"a, and you too will be saved, as it is written that whoever prays for his friend is answered first." Rabbi Kook shlit"a immediately answered and said: "Kel na refa na lo (Please God, heal him now), may all the blessings in the world rest upon him, and may all the Divine Assistance that exists in the world rest upon him."

In the blessings, one hears the immense love that Rabbi Kook shlit"a harbors for the holy Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, as we have brought several times in the past.

It is important to note that Rabbi Kook shlit"a is suffering from severe leg pain, pain that has intensified in the recent period. Due to this, Rabbi Kook shlit"a is in great distress. The request of the aforementioned chassid arrived against the background of this situation.
