Rabbi Eliahu Abergil, who serves Jerusalem's Baka neighborhood, has given a blessing to mayoral candidate Moshe Leon.

The former head of the city's religious courts wished Leon a landslide victory and gave him a copy of his book "Dibrot Eliahu", with a special dedication praising Leon's activities on behalf of the community. Leon had similar praises for the rabbi and expressed hope they would be able to work together in that regard.
