Description: View of the Ruzhiner yeshiva (left) and synagogue (right) on Malkhei Yisrael Street, Jerusalem. The yeshiva and synagogue were built by the Boyaner Rebbe of New York, Rabbi Mordechai Shlomo Friedman, and named Tiferet Yisrael after the Ruzhiner Rebbe, Rabbi Yisrael Friedman. The dome atop the synagogue recalls the domed Tiferet Yisrael Synagogue in the Old City which opened in 1872 and which was bombed by the Jordanians during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War.
