President Reuben (Ruby) Rivlin congratulated her on Twitter: "Congratulations to our dear devoted chief of staff Rivka Ravitz and the dear father Yitzhak Ravitz, on the birth of a son. A new brother and uncle to the entire Ravitz family. You should raise him with pleasure and love with God 's help."
