Where does the word Oratz Come From?
Often times I am asked where the word "Oratz" comes from. I am not exactly 100% sure but this is the story my father told me. My father was Abe Oratz who was born in Europe. "Oratz" is bascially comprised of two hebrew words. The words are "Or" and "Aitz" which stands for light and tree. We all the know the signifigance of light as pure. Tree signifies tall and leadership. Rabbi Oratz signifies both of these redeeming qualities.
