making it one of the largest funerals in Israeli history, second only to Ovadia Yosef's, which had more than 850,000 in October 2013. Personal life Kanievsky was married to Batsheva, a daughter of Yosef Sholom Eliashiv, with whom he had eight children. He had a great degree of respect for her, on principle not eating lunch until she was ready to join him. She died in 2011. Regardless of his schedule, Kanievsky was involved in the lives of his extended family, visiting his sister and hosting his brother-in-law every Friday. The family did not use public electricity on Shabbat. On long Friday nights, using a kerosene lamp, Kanievsky would play the following "games" with his children: They would read a Talmudic maxim to him from a book, and he would quote by memory the sources where it was found, often including ones not listed in the book. In another, they would name a book, and he would point to its exact location on the bookshelf, which they would then bring down and look through together.
