a month of
mercy the month of the month of
preparing ourselves
for the awesome yamane-rohim
the yamatavim throughout history
so we have a lot before us a lot of
opportunities
and hashem gives us an entire month
to prepare ourselves it's so wonderful
so special
so i'm going to talk today a little bit
about
visionitzer hasidim and rebus and khabad
and there's a lot to say
and we'll see where we go
envision it's there is a
tradition that each of the sons
of the rebbe
becomes kind of a mini rebbe
a rover in a in a nearby
shul in nearby city they're given
a place of prominence and it
isn't a contradiction to
the main rep is what we call rabista for
his
hasidic flock and leadership
after the passing of the imbrechayam
known as
rebhayan mero who
came from europe to urge this role
his two sons became
for whatever reason
they did not
seem to want the other one to be
the rebbe i don't know all the politics
and it's not relevant
but the bottom line is that they were
for years
at odds with each other and naturally
each one
gathered a very large group of hasidim
to themselves so for example in muncie
muncie before everyone else moved in it
was vision it's town
okay vishnuts laid the foundation
for from kite and yiddish
everyone else came after their hard work
and so too binet brock
although there was the panovich shiva
and the lit fox
but vignettes brought a certain
wholesomeness to the neighborhood
and removed the stigma that it
is only a litvisher yeshiva community
and it became a shidashi community as
well
and maybe even greater and again that's
arguable and debatable and not for this
conversation either
so this martial art had a son
that two sons rebecca and mendel who
today
are the two co-rebbis of vishnuts
in eric's isro
for whatever reason and we're not going
to go into the reasons because it's
again
very complicated and convoluted
rabbi israel the older son of rabbishala
was ostracized from the vignettes
community
he was a very he is a very kind person
and many people came to him for loans
and help with
marrying off their children and in
general they would not
him they had needs they were financially
in distress and he helped them
and he loaned hundreds of thousands of
dollars on his own name
and over the years it accumulated and he
they
he couldn't repay or repay in full
whatever
and this court in this other people who
he gave
gave him the money came to his father
emotionally complaining you know
and this caused a lot of stress
and for whatever other reasons there
might be and it's
really a hotbed
and not clear and not important really
the bottom line is that for 18 years
the vision it's community of the
neighborhood
distance israel
also known as israel
the visions they always put a little cat
and something like that at the end of
the name
to uh to kind of put the
cute touch to their rebels
so he was out and this caught them a lot
of pain
which rabbit out of all the rabbits
helped him wonder
our
from sitting in brooklyn new york helped
a jew in bernay brock eric's role
how did he do this
he did this in several ways
one when jeremy's throw came to the
rebel for dollars in the early 90s
he said to the rebber i ask for a broker
that i be you reunited with my father
and that ebb answered him quoting the
verse
your beginning will be tight narrow
humble and your
end will be broad
so that acknowledged it's a tough
situation
i understand what you're going through
but the end will be
you will be so much better and bigger
and that's what happened
additionally the only community
that allowed him to
lead his group of hassan that stayed
loyal to him
in benebrach where was where did he have
a physical location where he could have
shallow sugars with them
and they're butters that's friday night
where they get together and they sing
and they eat something and they say
divri torah
it was in the laboratory
of rashi
the babbage took in the israel and they
weren't scared
that they will be terrorized or uh
there'll be backlash from the vision
it's a community
no one else did it because they were all
scared
this is lubavitch this is khabad
if it's the right thing because hashem
says it's the right thing
no human being can stop you and this is
the same self-sacrifice that our
ancestors had in russia
and the freedom called upon us hasidim
made a pact with them to have
self-sacrifice
do or die for yiddishkai to teach a
jewish child to open a heider to keep
the mikvah open
to run from here to there gather a few
children and learn with them
the underground
you see this self-sacrifice
you know clearly if they catch you once
twice three times
you're either shot right away or you're
sent away and you'll die from starvation
or typhus
the chances of survival are
very small and they did it anyway
because it was the right thing to do so
too in benebrach
when the bistro hagar division is one of
the vision cerebrus needed refuge
who came to his salvation lubavitch
chabad and this is a tremendous lesson
for us
so when we talk about the connection
between lubavitch
and vishnuts maybe
there is no great correspondence between
the rabbayum and the vishnutsera bayem
maybe they didn't know each other really
although they say that i think the
ibrahimos
or his father traveled
to see the rebel ashab because
he had this thing about seeing and
visiting
other tsadikim and he made his
way to the rebera shop again i don't
know if he went to la babbage
or he saw him in a kuror in a vacation
resort when the rashab
went for 28 consecutive years for his
health
he went to menthon and different places
and could be
one of those places was where the vision
said rabbit came to see the rabbit
but regardless
even though there isn't obvious
extensive correspondence and
relationship between the two hasidic
dynasties
the crux then the kuda the point the
essence
is seen through this that rabbi israel
when he was
smothered isolated
hurt who did it reach out to the rebel
who helped him the babaji siddha
and i think that as we go into ello
we think about this it proves clearly
that the labavich chabad
movement is not about itself
it's about helping claudius role in any
way shape or form
may everyone have a great shabbos
shabbos be blessed with only the
brochures that hashem
blesses us with my shabbos with working
for the entire month
and ultimately we will all
see that's him we will all
be together
in the holy city of yerushalayim in the
basa amigdas
because of mamish amen
