Israel Bus Driver's Last-Minute Tefillin Decision: A Heartfelt Encounter
The video shows a secular young man, without a Yarmulkah, is boarding a bus. the bus driver, Rabbi Moshe David Cohen, a Chabad Chassid from Beitar Illit was driving the bus. Cohen promotes him, with a personal touch: "You haven't been here for a long time." The young man immediately approached him and announced: "Today I need tefillin." The driver in response directs him to the location of the tefillin he regularly holds on the bus, just in case of such requests. "You have up here, here on the bench," Cohen is seen saying. A few minutes later, after the young man has finished putting on the tefillin, the driver, Rabbi Cohen, shares with him. "You want to hear something interesting," "I have been making sure for a long time that I travel with the tefillin until tonight. Today before I left the house, for this trip, I thought to myself maybe I leave my Tefillin at home because for a long time no one has asked me for tefillin. But, I do not know how it got into me, but I said no!! "Maybe there is still someone out there wanting to put on Tefillin." The passenger, for his part, said: "Because the last time I boarded the bus, you offered to put on tefillin, so I knew from my that I have tefillin here." Cohen: "Yeah, just today I fell, the evil instinct wanted to put you in a trap, you see, it just teaches us that if you suddenly feel the emotion of giving up, something like this doesn't come from the good side it comes from the evil instinct." The passenger: "I always, in my subconscious, I know that there are tefillin on this bus. The truth is today I was a little stressed so I said come on I'll put on the Tefillin in the Chabadskers bus." by Kikar HaShabbat Join our channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQjnflCN_nFYVfb8Y3VV7TQ?sub_confirmation=1
