</a>In light of the fact that what Levy did is a Chilul
HaShem, then based on Rav Schwab's article<br><br>
Chillul
Hashem<<a href="http://www.stevens.edu/golem/llevine/rsrh/chillul_hashem_r_schwab.pdf" eudora="autourl">

<br>
it seems to me that Levy cannot fully repent until his death.<br><br>
<br>
There he writes<br><br>
Every form of Chillul Hashem lowers the awareness of<br>
the Divine Presence in the world. But if the desecrator<br>
happens to be a professed Torah observer or, even worse, a<br>
so-called scholar of the Torah, then the Chillul Hashem not<br>
only weakens the respect for Torah on one hand, but<br>
strengthens on the other hand the defiance of the nonobserver<br>
and adds fuel to the scoffers, fanning the fires of<br>
religious insurrection all around. Chillul Hashem is<br>
responsible, directly or indirectly, for the increase of frivolity,<br>
heresy and licentiousness in the world. Therefore, we should<br>
not be surprised reading the harsh words of condemnation<br>
we find in the Talmud: "He who has committed Chillul<br>
Hashem, even Teshuvoh, Yom Kippur and suffering cannot<br>
fully atone for his sin until the day of his death (Yoma
86)."<br><br>
So even though Levy has served his time it does not mean that according
to Judaism he is completely innocent.<br><br>
