Border Guard officer Shai Shiller was wounded last year during the evacuation of the Joseph\'s Tomb yeshiva compound. Only a few minutes earlier, he managed to rescue from the abandoned building the site\'s Elijah\'s Chair, used in britot (ritual circumcisions). After several weeks, when he had recovered from his wounds, he made contact with the students who had learned there, to whom he transferred the chair. He told them that he believed his life was saved in the merit of his act.
Arutz-7\'s Yosef Mantinband reports that several days ago, Shiller again contacted the yeshiva students - this time to invite them to his home in Nahariya for the circumcision ceremony of his first-born son. The students and their teachers arrived happily, and with them the Elijah\'s Chair that the father-of-the-son had rescued. The name given to the baby: Neriah Yosef. Yesterday, Shabbat Shuvah, marked the first anniversary of the abandonment of Joseph\'s Tomb.
