You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

(("Blood for goods" proposal))
Rabbi '''Yonasan Steif''' (((lang-yi|יונתן שטייף))&lrm;; August 12, 1877 – August 25, 1958) was a senior [[Dayan (rabbinic judge)|dayan]] of [[Budapest]], [[Hungary]], before the [[Second World War]], a man whom Rabbis [[Moshe Feinstein]] and [[Joel Teitelbaum]] referred to as the ''gadol hador'' (spiritual leader of the generation). He was a world-renowned [[posek]] and [[Halacha|halachic]] authority.

He served as senior dayan together with Rabbi [[Israel Welcz]]. The [[Beth Din#Officers of a Beth/Beis Din|Rosh Beth Din]] was Rabbi [[Efraim Fishel Zussman Sofer]]. While Rabbi Steif may have assumed the role of rosh beth din as the year 1944 approached, he was not such for most of his tenure.

==Biography==
Rabbi Steif was rescued from death in [[the Holocaust]] in 1944 as a result of a deal between [[Rudolph Kastner]], and a deputy of [[Adolf Eichmann]]. He journeyed on the [[Kastner train]], a special train bound for neutral [[Switzerland]], along with other prominent Jews including the [[Satmar (Hasidic dynasty)|Satmar]] Rebbe, Rabbi [[Joel Teitelbaum]]; the [[Debrecen|Debreciner]] Rov, Rabbi [[Moshe Stern]]; [[Adolph Deutsch]], head of the Budapest branch of [[World Agudath Israel|Agudath Israel]]; and many "ordinary" Jews.

He and his wife '''Bluma''' had 2 children; a son named Tzvi Yehuda and a daughter named Esther Shulamis. His son was murdered in the Holocaust together with his young son Aron while trying to escape the Nazis. The rest of his family, including his wife, his daughter-in-law Breindel with her two other sons Sholom Yosef and Michoel, and his daughter Esther with her 2 young sons, were rescued with Rabbi Steif, on the Kastner train. His son-in-law Aron Bleier (Esther's husband) was in the concentration camps at the time but miraculously survived and was re-united with the family after the war. A third son was born to them in 1950.((cn|date= October 2023))

He resettled and was appointed as rabbi of ''[[Kehal Adas Yereim]]'' in [[Williamsburg, Brooklyn|Williamsburg]], [[Brooklyn]], [[New York (state)|New York]], which had been founded by Orthodox Jews who came from [[Vienna]] living in New York, and he was known as the ''Wiener Rov'' (rabbi of Vienna). He was a major [[Posek]], he wrote halachic [[Responsa#In Judaism|responsa]], works on the [[Talmud]] and two works setting forth the [[Noahide laws|obligations of gentiles]], one called ''Sefer Mitsvos Ha-Shem'', "The Book of God's Commandments".A number of other works were published later, and are still being worked on today.

He died at [[Montefiore Medical Center|Montefiore Hospital]] in [[The Bronx, New York]] on August 25, 1958.<ref>((cite news|title=Rabbi Jonathan Steif|url=http://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1958/08/28/79460094.html?pageNumber=27|access-date=19 April 2016|newspaper=[[New York Times]]|date=August 28, 1958|page=27))</ref>
