” t is with sadness that we report the passing of Rabbi Yehoshua Hutner of Yerushalayim, at the ripe old age of 98.  Rabbi Yehoshua Hutner passed away Monday morning. He established the Yad Herzog Institute which was responsible for creating the Talmudic Encyclopedia and the Complete Jerusalem Talmud.  Rabbi Hutner merited to have the support and never- ending encouragement of the Rebbe for these two monumental projects.  An extensive  and detailed account of Rabbi Hutner’s correspondence with the Rebbe is to be found (in Hebrew) here. Rabbi Hutner’s funeral will begin at 4:00 p.m. in the Sanhedriya funeral home in Jerusalem. Shturem.net
