Self Sacrifice for Judaism: Previous Rebbe lauded by Rabbi Silver

we're going to talk about the frida karebe's time in america when he traveled to baltimore philadelphia st louis all along the atlantic coast and here we are with the background the atlantic ocean with the beautiful version on arrows bridge here in brooklyn connecting staten island and brooklyn i believe in mid-december to beginning of january left the new york area and he went to baltimore he spent time there he met with the mayor there and other dignitaries and he said khasid is there and one of the places that hasidis was in rabbi eliot oxlads shul angela babbage and i was in that show the school was closed for many years the barbecue bought it several years ago and it seemed like there was a chair there that that was the chair upon which the rebber the previous lab was sat when he said the mimer abe axelrod when he would look at the chair he would cry from great all that ebber went on to philadelphia and there he went to the liberty bell and he sat on the chair and and where the declaration of independence was was written and the mayor came out to greet him and the mayor called the frida kaderberg a hero and thousands of people came to greet the debbie in each of these cities baltimore and philadelphia and then he went on to saint louis and st louis the reception was so large that the papers wrote that when weissman of the weizmann institute is israel the famous israeli scientist who created a world academy for science when he came there to st louis he had many less people than the free that could ever had when he came so the question is why did all these eden come out and you know baltimore was a ashkenaz city between german jews and lit fox from vilna it wasn't a khasitisha city other earth cities memorial had more qasid but baltimore wasn't yet so many people came there in philadelphia although it's a city of love and lubavitch also means the city of love luba is love in russian nevertheless um the the uh the city philadelphia isn't uh you know anything uh special as far as uh yes there was a talmud of the river ashab there and uh the later that ever opened the yeshiva there in the 4445 rabbi yitzka groener mendel tenenbaum led that yeshiva in those years rabbi popek was there but that was later i'm talking here about 1929 1930 going into 1930 and st louis as well and i think that one of the individuals who stands out who made public the specialty of the previous rabbit as a sadiq and as a going and as a palmasita snafish was rabel eliezer silver a blazer silver although himself a staunch lit it was a massive talmud and he was the head of the agodes harabanim of of of united states and there's uh there's he was a personality for himself and he knew of what lubavitch did in russia and the the messiest message that the frida kraben had to fight stalin and communism and for this he rolled out the red carpet for this he's told didn't and he told people and he had his rabbis who would look to him to announce in their congregations to the simple folk that this this sadik who's coming who's here we must all go out and greet him because he stands for the truth he stands for mercedes nephesh and this is what khabad labage is all about mesita's nephesh self-sacrifice putting yourself aside even the spiritual matters for another yid so the atlantic ocean which is the ocean that greeted the rebbe when he came in 1929 and 30 and the ocean upon which he traveled from the europe to baltimore philadelphia to to saint louis and continued on in that vicinity this ocean kind of had the good fortune to have such a yid such at sadiq the previous rabbit of yosef yitzchak that the entire jewish world and all the cities came to greet him and hear his maimaru which you said in each place and the echidna said the private audiences that he gave to everyone and he had a mix built he had a special countries written in english for the importance of tarzan and mikva and because of that a mikva was built in st louis and in other places that was one of the things that that ever did and while it was here in america for almost a year from september 29th through july mid-july of 30 was to strengthen tara spoka jewish family purity jewish family so now 90 years later we remind ourselves and we see the growth of judaism and jewish values hasidim literacy eden all kinds of eden working together that came in 1929 and 30 and he traveled after the incarceration of 1927 and near death a death sentence that was abolished and then hard labor that was abolished another sentence being sent away and he survived because he didn't give in to those that opposed yiddish kite and from kite and he taught us hasidim and he taught claudius that we have to stand up for what we believe and not give in to the oppressors and those that want to show them god forbid eliminate the light of akush barhu may each and every one of us take this lesson in our lives to follow this sadik's strength and courage and this will bring ultimately the coming of meshiach very speedily will we will all go together to yerushalayim and see the rebuilding of the basa amigdas amen
