Rokeach got married to 19 year old Hannah Batya Penet in Israel on
Tuesday and the wedding was witnessed by a stunning 25,000 guests and
lasted for hours ending at the early part of the dawn of Wednesday. The
wedding is significant because the groom is seen as a future leader of
the Hasidic Jewish sect that began in Polan in 1800's therefore making
his entrance into the institute of marriage as the launch of a new era.
