Özet:

İzmir Beit Hillel Synagogue is known as the synagogue of Chief Rabbi Hayim Palachi. Today in this building restored into Rav Palachi Memorial House, a copy of a notebook belonging to Beit Hillel, which contains the Hanoten Teshua Tefilah (prayer) in Hebrew is exhibited. The original of the notebook is in The Central Archives for the History of the Jewish People in Jerusalem. This Tefilah, which is completely Torah originated and a specific Jewish prayer starts by wishing success and salvation to Mustafa Kemal Pasha. The date the Tefila Notebook was written and used is probably 1922 or 1923. The Jewish communities in Izmir and Istanbul have continued to preserve and read this prayer in the Republic of Turkey, which was established after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire.The establishment of the State of Israel did not lead to any change in this ritual. From the date the Republic of Turkey was established until the present day; from the First President Mustafa Kemal Ataturk to the Twelfth President RecepTayyip Erdogan, for every President, Hanotene Teshua Prayer has been read and continues to be read. Where as it is known that, many Jewish communities in European cities have either rewritten this old prayer extensively or have completely destroyed it.
