Skwere, Klausenberg, Boyan, Stolin, Telz and Chabad

mode and when we remind ourselves about swat remind ourselves of this very special day yuchat first the stalkers the yard side of the frida kadamba and then of course the day yucha 1951 when the rebel hour became our so there's a lot to talk about and in particular i want to talk a little bit about uh my new book that came out this last week chabad and boyan kleisenberg square and stalin and the second book chabad and tells on the cover there's the rebbe and rabbi gift the moroccan gifter who was the rosh yeshiva for years at tells in cleveland i want to talk about a few just ideas how the frida keraba ended made an impact on these rabbits and on these kids and this goggle and to to understand that although sometimes we don't see it that we don't hear it on the contrary we hear that they're not friends of the babies but really there's a lot more than what than what meets the eye so let's talk about the klaisenberger briefly and the kleistenberger hired a lebovacher to be the principal of his girls school this is rabbi mordecai shiner so lazan kazunte lives in borough park he's still the principal and he was there for years many many years and he told me many stories of which are in the book and basically when they when his uh manager his administrator said we have an application from alabacher and you know i mean is this something that you want for your girls school he said if he'll be smart he'll know how to balance the two and indeed he did and the collision began but was very very happy that lobovicher was the principal of his girls school the kleistenberger rabbit his health at certain time points weren't good and he was in houston and the schlierer you know how to you know to take care of him and then do that but i think every day would ask hand the cuff to call up and find out how he's doing so there was an ongoing relationship also we see that uh they both the rebel and the claims mcgregor passed away i believe in the same week or week or two in tough shindunda which is interesting you know so on one hand kleisenberg is a um hungarian hasidic group but there was commonality in various ways also the rashi the rebel was very interested and taught how to learn the clause mcgregor every thursday night would give uh adrasha would give on the parsha and people would come in union city new jersey and people come from williamsburg and borrow park with a bus and it was i think an hour and a half or so an amazing sheer i was told and a large part of that focus of this year was rashi as well he didn't learn and teach the rashi the way the rabbit taught the rash of two different approaches but nevertheless it was uh it was also focusing on rashi and the rebber when binyamin williger was in geridis the rapper asked him about it he says i hear that episode i hear that the your rabbit you know gives a share rashi could you tell me about it and and things like that so there was uh a shared interest also i was told that to fabregas in the early days in the 50s and 60s and 70s many years kleisenberg has seen them um so if you compare you know kleisenberg to other hasidic groups in williamsburg borough park etc they were probably more more kleisenberg has seen them and then of course we have the biannual rabbi in this build uh and we have the square rebel and the that stoner the rebbe single-handedly pushed the biannual rebel to become a rebel he didn't want he said he's you know too young the guerrari's alma gerardi is uh grants uh is us adam a son-in-law by the cape capistra was related to the beyond the river and um through the salmon i believe there ever you know asked him to encourage and he he be on the rabbit to become in 1980 i think uh before he married he was in new york although he married i believe yerushalayim a few months before he was in new york and uh people saw him have gone to yahidis with the rebel quietly you know unannounced things like that and uh we know that there is a a strong connection between the holy great great grandfather of the bianna the illusionary have said to have called them the heilig and uh that's although really this is in belarusia and this is in you know in in romania that set that part of europe and very far from each other and it really the approaches of beyond in hasidis and chabad are very very different but clearly from the time of the masada and delusional there was a cl an affinity between them and that continued for generations and the rabbit felt this way too when we talk about the stolen arab who was known as the yanuka became a rabbit a very young age he also has a great affinity and love for uh lubavitch in the river again there although you know he started historically there was a big deal it was a very different opinion between caroline stolen colleen the calendar and chabad carolina the emotionalism the you know screaming during davening and all that and chabad is quiet and uh introspective um type contemplative prayer versus emotional and ecstatic prayer so there are major differences nevertheless um in our time the stoner rebbe and and the rebber have enjoyed the a closeness in fact they're ever told it called them anasi um so people make you know uh a big deal about that and that is a big deal uh for someone to be called the nussey so a prince a leader of a whole uh hasidis being called the nazi uh we know from our calling his father-in-law the nussey we know how important what that means and everything else that goes along with it uh finally we have discovered it happened and this greater there but i wrote quite a bit about the the holy balshampton sitter which was very controversial for years but today it's settled we have the legal documents and i shared some of that in the book showing that there was a legal sale uh by us veracrusted uh to the frida krebs representative and uh as you all know the sitter is in the library as we talk now it's in our chabad library at 770. um and um square again is a very different type of hasidis it's oh it is a russian hasidis they're for russian citizens right bresliv chernobyl um carleen stalin and lubavitch and each is very different the three are very different than chabad and even with amongst themselves there's differences those three groups but uh the scared ebba has been a rabbit since 1968 when his father passed away and he's done amazing amazing things he's built in entire cities not only in new square he was the first of the rebbes that went away from the brooklyn hub williamsburg of borough park and and opened up a uh a casitas in rockland county and he wanted to be away from the tumbled of new york and he was able to implement various customs that he felt are important and that thrives and their yeshivas and girls schools and boys schools and but russia and mikvez and this is a new square in listen to that we have various uh steedla here in borough park and uh of course today's uh mikv on kingston avenue uh in the rabbi levi's show is upstairs downstairs is the mikveh that building i believe was the square steeple and um and then you have it in in other other communities too uh here in america and also in arizona in england and montreal so the the movement is a thriving movement an active movement that has many ways there's many institutions and um we enjoy a nice uh warm relationship with uh skver today when we talk about rabbi a gifter and tells it really needs a full program for itself and amit hashem we will do that but just since we mentioned the book uh briefly uh rabbi gifter in the 1940s had a question on a on a on a cemetery something in the truman and he couldn't find it and he asked he wrote to the rebbe i think this is in the 40s 40s and 50s and there's a response and the and he said this over to several people lit bishop people who told me this who were in the cleveland del yeshiva or the kayla over there and he said the rebbe on the spot gave him the exact reference where he is where it is in the childhood childhood marseilles and rabbi gifters always said that ebba is a going of going and learning he had some disagreements with him on other issues you know how to approach communal issues and you know the nifty outreach she wasn't a great fan of that at least some of them and how they were done but so be it you know he's entitled his
