1940 Rabbi YY Schneersohn arrives in America & saves Jewry - Rabbi Chaim Dalfin

foreign to everyone yesterday was Tessa the day when the free decade came to America in 1941 1940 and the thinking about it it's really awesome it's really special and it has a connection teaching every one of us whether we're Chabad or not Chabad Judaism at the time was to say the least surviving you know difficult times we were at the beginning of the Holocaust and the rabbit miraculously was saved that's a whole story for itself how he was saved the intervention of the State Department of leadership of August in America the German government the half-jewish soldiers and Generals of the German Army there's a lot a lot of details it's been written up it's online and it's fascinating foreign see pictures of him coming off the boat a healthy man walking himself you take a look in just 10 short years his wheelchair confined you could see on his face the the hardships that he's carrying on his shoulder the burden naturally with the Holocaust in full force and he miraculously was saved knowing that his The Hidden somebody even didn't were stuck his own hasidim's own people and many others and everyone else it really it really bothered him but what does he do when he comes he doesn't take a vacation he doesn't say first let me chill out what he does right away he says the first night he was at the Greystone Hotel he says tomorrow morning we're opening Yeshiva Allah and his supporters who were behind them they they they they felt this is ridiculous you don't have people behind you to support a Yeshiva you don't have students like what are you talking about what are you doing and they were against him and he basically told them you want to work with me great you don't want to work with me it's also fine Hashem will provide and help and together with his staff and ultimately the devil came in 1941 he developed a network of 14 yeshivas throughout the greater East Coast he strengthened Jewish children and public schools through the Wednesday hour and the Smita Shabbos campaigns and the Machine is and he also wasn't fathomed by people from the inside who gave him heart hardships who had complaints various ones including foreign he saw the end he looked what does America need and he single-handedly established lapovic if not for the Frida Kadabra communicating and sharing with us the 250 year history the rich history of Chabad foreign we wouldn't have anything and a few of the babbages that were here in in New York in Brooklyn New York and in the other communities around Philadelphia Chicago Etc it was dwindling just a matter of time you see pictures of them dancing at the pier and I look at those pictures and those the video that they they put out showing that it warms the heart and it it's it's not because I'm a laborator he's might ever you know it's not because of that it's because here is a yeed who hadn't seen us an effish self-sacrifice foreign for jewishness and Judaism and Eden of All Sorts what do you think this difficult did in 1929 and 30 when he visited Philadelphia St Louis and Baltimore in Chicago and Detroit and Bronx and Williamsburg and Borough Park and Craig Heights and Brownsville what do you think he did he was magaziki strengthened of course once he laid the the foundation during the 1940s and he had a person like that ever and his other son-in-law the Rashad who led the yeshivas to powerful people very different people but two powerful people helping him build Lubavitch in America that ever then took it to another level but it's not for that this day test other this week we would have zero I'm telling you we would have nothing other hasidism other groups were decimated and they had nothing and only in the 1960s 70s that they start blossoming with having institutions you know whether it was square a new Square soccer in Williamsburg in in in in the mid 50s although the December cave in the 47 but you know took a while kleisenberg had ever of course but there are Yas came in 1940 he came much earlier than all of them and he had those 10 years as the Reba said his his mission of 10 years of 30 years being a rabbit 10 years in Russia 1920 1930 pretty much 10 years in Poland 1930 to 40 roughly and 10 years in America 1940 to 1950. so when we remind ourselves about this day we truly could say ashrae no matter if volcano have Fortune how lucky we are at the abused of the god almighty gave us a blessing and a gift to save the rabbit and have him come to America and in in as we know the famous teaching the balantania that Michelle come when they'll be godliness in in Taylor attacked in the lower hemisphere I.E America so now it's 83 years later and give this guy is not just surviving but thriving it's gevaldic really everyone has their Yeshiva everyone has their Rabbi everyone has their shoe everyone has their their school everyone has their mixer there's competition for children to go to this issue with that Yeshiva for this girl's school that's girls school but what's left is what's left is to bring all ye eaten including those hidden that don't know yet about Toyota or maybe they don't want to know about Tata back to the fold to the the way of a college vertical because it's the best way at the end of the day the way of Taylor in the way of Davis did is the best way there's no better way there's no Perfection anywhere but the way of theta is the best way the

Wild and Woolly and uh you know to date as we say in Yiddish it's it's it's time to get up to get over it okay you got to run 75 times enough enough you sit by a suda you say hi you say once twice with your family and it goes on and on and by the end you drank a lot of wine like like it says and you fall asleep or whatever the case that's one thing that's called with a seriousness so I I um
