and
chanukah of course is illumination
chanukah
is brightness hanukkah is or
light the light is upon us

i know many people have hanukkah parties
families get together and
it's important to think about those that
are by themselves to invite them or to
go to them
they should feel
united i'll tell a few stories that
maybe you could use
at your hanukkah parties one story i
heard this past
shabbos in toms river new jersey near
lakewood
a friend named joseph scheidler
told me the story several years ago
he was living in lakewood
and shabbos morning
some neighbors knock on his door early
in the morning they say come outside
because your car has been broken into
he goes outside and he realizes that not
only was it broken
into but about
ten thousand dollars of gear of
equipment he's a photographer
a specialized photographer does a great
job
and it was stolen
comes back it tells his wife the police
are called somehow the police come
they take a report but the material is
not there
the gear is gone
he monster shabbos
he goes he sees the rebbe's picture he
sees
him he talked to the rebel and he says
rabbi my dear rebel i can't anymore
this is my panoso you have to help me
and he takes out
and he puts a letter into the ignis
kaidish of the rebbe
the letters of the river and he opens to
a page with the rebel says to someone
don't be anxious about your parnosa it
will be
all okay after he got this answer
he literally his wife was out somewhere
and he went to in a park i think was
the next day shop this afternoon and he
and he uh and i'm sorry it was a motor
shop sunday
whenever it was he he is dancing with
simcoe with joy people are looking at
him neighbors
it's a new area tom's river where a lot
of um from people are moving into
and they ask him what's going on you
know they knew that he had a break in a
break-in and he lost a lot of uh
gear and worth thousands of dollars and
he says
i know i'm going to get it all back i
got a broker from that
you know there aren't lubavitches there
really there's literature and then
hasidah the nazis and they look at him
like he's crazy
and even his own wife i mean
it's wonderful that her husband has such
a munda but meanwhile the gear is not
here
he had tickets to go to the ukraine he
took his wife for the trip to ukraine to
the altar debbie to
and he went to hadith anyway
he was in the altered bizarre of davis
and he comes out of the oil the phone
rings and he sees it's a number
from the jersey and it's the police
department lakewood the police
department calling him and they said we
found your gear
and he told them that there's a rule a
law in new jersey
that when you give a pawn shop items to
sell
they are not allowed to sell it for 10
days because maybe it's stolen goods and
the
real owner will come and claim it and it
will be returned
they said they they the police said they
hadn't heard anything content
in in almost the end of the tenth day
one hour they called
the last hour of the tenth day
they got a call that this is
the items
or they they became aware of it the
police and they claimed the items
and they said this is stolen goods the
last hour of the tenth day
while he was standing at the altarebes
caver
in haditch after the rebbe answered him
that you have nothing to worry about
with your panasonic
don't be anxious it'll be all right
he told me the mice he recorded for me
myself the story
use it chanukah by your mesibis by your
gatherings
another story i received an email out of
the blue this week
from a gentleman named that i've been
seeing corn
i never met him i never heard of him he
wants to buy
a book of mine rabbi rabbi hutner and
one of the books that i wrote
so i emailed him back just out of
curiosity you know how
how does he come to know about my book
and they were talking back and forth on
the email
and then he calls me he says enough with
the email let me let me tell you
he and he writes and he speaks about how
the rebels are and how rabbi hutner is a
great
great sadiq and and he lords the doulam
and the rebels
and he's not a lebator
and he says like this in the early 70s
71 72
when jim i don't know if they had the
name gem them when the hookups
of the fabregans during the week started
on the with the
um wlcc uh not w
i'm sorry w evd
translated if i bring us the public
foreign
started in those years i don't remember
exactly 71 72
73 those years one of those years
he who grew up from
you know a new yiddish from
toronto came to new york as a single
man a single young man
and you know he was having his struggles
you know he kept
the shabbos he kept either skype but you
know he was having
struggles anyway
his friends tell him listen it's
saturday night
let's go out to a party
um where what when he's just fine pick
me up you know
no you knew that it wasn't exactly you
know uh of abraham for sure
it wasn't a holy messi but holy
gathering
and um he says when you're downstairs
uh call me or you know and i'll i'll
come down
okay me when he gets dressed to go out
to the party
for some reason he turns on the radio
and there was a fabregan on w evd
and he understands yadish and he heard
the voice that he never heard before
he knew of the babies
and he just became glued to the voice
and he told me put his two
two hands these two elbows on the
table like this and he just stood there
glued listening for 10 minutes
mesmerized elsewhere
the phone rings he takes the phone it's
his friends we're here come down
he says i'm not going go yourself
a change of plans i'm not going
he was so taken by the rebbe's voice
he told me he didn't understand much he
understands the others but you know the
context
whatever that was speaking about he says
he just could not go
to somewhere that wasn't exactly
you know kosher i don't mean kosher it
wasn't
it wasn't in the spirit of room kite and
yiddish kite again i don't know
he didn't tell me where what when but it
wasn't
for a yeshiva buckle okay let's put it
that way
instead he went downstairs he took the
train to kran heights
because he heard this while that was
fabregan
he told me he stood up in the back
somewhere
and he saw the rebels saying to people
and he asked for the khayim and he got
some bacaya picked up his cup and he
says
they ever looked at him he says maybe
the devil is looking at different people
as well but to me
says it was like he was looking into my
eyes
and saying i know you just went through
lechaym or you should grow
as a yid and from that day on he did
now boise a second story
from nadal above who told this to me
this
week just the voice
of the sadiq made an impact on him
use these stories make a siddhis
remember to give hanukkah guilt not only
to your family but the friends and
others
to do them with him to reach out
if you can't visit people call them
talk to them it's a time
when we bring light into the world
through the light will be zaika will
merit to have mashiach
immediately amen the omega
