Rabbi Noach Muroff at the podium at the 91st Agudath Israel Convention on Nov 16 2013, at the Hilton Woodcliffe Lake in Woodcliff Lake, N.J. Rabbi Muroff who has since his return of $98,000 found in a used desk he purchased on Craigslist, to its original owner has become a national media sensation.

Rabbi Muroff was invited to address the 91st convention, which was held at the Woodcliff Lake Hilton in New Jersey, by the Agudah’s executive Vice President, Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zweibel. He received multiples sustained rounds of applause and a double standing ovation as he addressed the overflow crowd at the convention, which was also transmitted to various locations across the country.

In a soft-spoken voice that was laden with emotion, Rabbi Muroff expressed his belief that any frum person would have acted in the same manner. He also responded forcefully to those who claimed that he did not act according to halacha.

Imagine buying a desk under $200 on Craigslist only to find thousands of dollars hidden inside.

That’s exactly what happened New Haven Rabbi Noach Muroff and his wife. They found a huge pile of cash after buying a desk. When the couple brought the desk home it wouldn’t fit through the door. The couple had to pull the desk apart, including the file cabinets. Behind the drawers they discovered a plastic bag filled with cash. they counted up and there’s $98,000 cash sitting in the bag. The couple couldn’t believe their eyes. They picked up the phone and called the original owner

The original owner was speechless. “Oh my gosh, because I… oh my God,” she said. The former owner had stuffed her inheritance in the desk and forgot where she put the money. The rabbi and his wife returned the cash to the rightful owner. Rabbi Muroff said the most important thing in life is to be honest.
