R Aron Dalfin encountered R Amrom Blau in 1956 and had an interesting exchange abt Matza - RC Dalfin

In the background, you can see the beautiful Mediterranean Sea. And I share with you a story that happened a little while before Pesak in 1955 or 56, one of those years. And the story is between my father and Amram's son and Ra. The Reb called for the distribution of Shmura matzah, handbaked matzah throughout Eritrol, throughout the world for that matter. And my father was working in a bakery in gula or mayorim to make a few dollars uh extra on the side after yeshiva probably basim when you had time to do this. Anyway, he was a student of Mim Kessleman and his rash was who was a friend of Feinstein and my father took it very seriously and the idea was that when you work at the bakery or you go in, you ask the owner if he could spare a few matzahas to distribute to other people. This was in the years when the the yeshiva was still in Lud not in Kabad and they didn't have yet the bakery. So we they depended on getting matzah from other places. So my father's working and the son of Rabl Amram was the head of the Nura who opposed Vietnamly Zionist and Zionism and everything else. So he asked him could you spare a few matzah so I can give out matzah to people that don't have matzah. So he so the son of Abama asked him and who are these people? So he said they're not religious Jews. They're not observant but they're Jewish. So the son said they are like and they're because they don't keep the the mitzvah they don't observe the the Torah and obser the commandments and they're like and they're and since they're Zionistic they're they're they're wicked a Zionist is wicked because he opposes Tyra that was the idea and it be and my father started to argue with him my father was already uh oh 1920 he was you know and he knew what's going on and he said to him what are you talking about these are Jews and they were relentless they didn't give up he didn't give up the son of soam happens to walk in in the middle of this argument discussion between my father and there's a commotion in the bakery and he asks what's going on so they tell him that this kabad student ber who's working here and doing a fine job. He wants some matzah for free to give out to others and we would normally do that of course without a problem but he's giving it to non-religious people and they're showy and he says they're not and looks at my father he says I agree with my son they're theim and there and and therefore they're not worthy of of eating mat and we're not going to give you any matzah Goodbye Charlie. That's the way it is. So my father said to Ra, "Braham, did you learn the first page of Tanya?" And he goes on to say, "The first page of Tanya, it says someone who doesn't learn every moment of their life on the first page." Going on to the second side is nicer is called wicked. And my father looks in the eye and he they he had no idea you know he just knew that um there's someone that's the head in the tur and he says to him I'm sorry to tell you but you're a Russia why because you don't learn t every single moment and according to what the balata sites here from the gum it's not the alter is the balat someone doesn't learn every moment there's a rush but you eat matzah right so if it's good enough for you as a Russia to eat matzah matzah this Russia that you consider because he's a Zionist can also eat mura masa should eat murata this became a commotion and the next day in the nurarta paper I forget what it was called they had a paper that they they printed I think every day big headlines kabad talmid student calls ami or Russia What do you think about that for a story? And what's the message? The message is don't call someone a Russia. Look at yourself first. Either either you're a Russia or the other person is not a Russian. It's better to say the other person is not a Russia because he's not a Russia. He might not agree with you even if he has Zionistic ideas and everything else. So here it is. It's a pesak story that happened almost 75 years ago, 70 years ago. And we we you know we remind oursel of it and we take it that although already we had the the sudarim the pesers mashia suda is coming and we're going to eat uh you know matzah and four cups as the tradition is and even if you don't follow the tradition you say on wine and it's the you know so it's still important to make sure that everyone has a piece of matzah the zadesh the holy Zora says that matzah is food of faith and food of healing. And the Reb had in his drawer all year round in his office in 770 in his drawer he had matzah and for time to time when someone came in and they had an issue and the felt that that this would help he gave them a piece of matzah from his draw. So if that's the case we could we should encourage people to still eat matzah especially on the last day. May Hashem help that we merit the coming of Msiah where there won't be any more fighting and disagreement Zionist not Zionist my father and everything else everyone will will live h happily ever after they live in peace and and and we they'll realize that to to give a a ye piece of matzah you don't need to have titsis and a and a yabaka and a beard pis As long you cover your head, makes and eats a piece of mata. Have a great day. Mashia should come now.
