this coming friday you test
heisman is the yard site
of harav elimelech siebel
the mailers feeble as we called him in
yeshiva
so i'd like to share with you
a little bit about his style of
habrengans
every year i try to touch upon something
unique
of this great giant talmud
and husset he was our mashpia morristown
1979 through 1981
and in particular i had
become very close to him
in listening to his shiurim siddhishi
with him
being an editor for the harass at mim
and having you know constant contact
with him
regarding the other remarks on the
rebeccas that we published every
week for shabbos
but today i want to talk about his
fabregans
and in a way compare them to fabregas of
other masbrevious
mental footwork
of salman gopin there are many different
fabregas
i'm talking about from those years from
the late 70s
early 80s
and everyone has their mile of their
advantage
fabregan was
opening for a baker for a student
the entire picture of the babbage of
chabad
history and chabad
varmkeit warmth now you have to
understand that melech
without taking a little muscular was
more of a
uh what what we would call a cold person
meaning
he wasn't very forthcoming he was more
of a very strong intellectual very
removed you have to come to him usually
and and i don't say that in any you know
bad way a negative way rather that that
was his
uh that's that was his nature
there are people who are more warm
people are more cold
but at the fabregian that's when you saw
a different side to him
you would think it's two different
people
it's not the same person you heard she
hurt him from
and spoke to on an average day
first of all he would tell us
stories and anecdotes but not long ones
not long rushes
the fabregan was a fabregan today
fabregas by many people have become
russia's sermons lecturers it's not a
fabregan
it's a sermon it's a sheer he would say
a mice avert that he heard usually many
times from absalom who repeated the name
of granum
the masbavish was a talmud of grenames
or a mashagarati of that he heard
stories from
kurzah short brief but very very
very to the point and many times he
wouldn't even
touch it out he wouldn't even elaborate
you would have to kind of
think about it and come to understand
yourself other times he did add some
verbiage to explain
what he means with the story so i don't
mean stories long about shampoo stories
with uh you know the and crazy stories i
don't mean that
i mean could say and also stories of
hasidim not just
of rabbis but of sedim so this was the
first time that we
coming we were coming from motion
parkway from the babaji shiva
and we had a wonderful special mashbeer
better lipscares
that was a different style and mailer
brought
the reikaf and the iraq
the breadth and the width
of of siddhis khabad
as encapsulated in the seekers of the
freedom
where he talks about this hazard yankel
the geller
he also the the the writer and things
like that
and this made a big impression on us so
in addition to learning considers and
and it was with him that we
you know our heads began opening up to
to understand the varsity's
you know because until then it wasn't
that way you went it was more textual
and you know it was more like you know
learning a piece of good mother
therapy but the idea of
delving into uh to an idea and and and
thinking about it and and and doing
something with it that all started in
morristown at least for me and i believe
i'm speaking for my friends as well and
most tell me them that were involved
but going back to the fabregas the first
nakuda is
he opened for us the door to the
larger picture of chabad lubavitch
through stories and anecdotes
not just of rabbeim but of hasidim
so i remember him talking about um
and not just sydney of the altitude
velenki
raping his races but you know
from
we never heard his name who is this guy
who what's going on
and he told us about about him
and and so he spoke about such sydney
that was one point another point is he
took lukayun
but he took lehigh in a way that the
he wasn't you know taking cups of vodka
that's not what he was doing but because
he set up myself and then al-akhayam and
our mice and
him so if he spoke for five ten minutes
and
five ten minutes i am it all added up
so as we got into the second and third
second hour of the fabregan
you could see him raise he can hear him
raising his voice
and you know when he starts raising his
voice the masker
is already having an impact on him and
we
enjoyed that again we enjoyed it because
the fabregain was now starting to
come together you know fabregan
requires several items
participants who are interested in
listening a speaker who has what to say
and who he lives with what he has to say
nigunim singing of real chabad nagunim
okay to vegas
and also lebanese
and when you put all three things
together
you get a genuine cavalry
and unfortunately
this is a lost art today many for
brilliance everyone's running for
brennan's
what's happened from the fabregan if the
elements are not there you must have
those elements
so you know
drinking a lot of alcohol is not a
fabrian
only singing and drawing a cup you know
is also not a fabrega and if no one's
listening it's always not if i bring in
and finally the speaker is uh doesn't
live with what he says
it's also not a fabric now
you know today we do what we can
everyone does what they can
anyway we go back to the nakuda
that the city but was very uplifting and
inspiring so we're into the second hour
and we can hear his voice
rising so we know the mosque is taking
effect and we sing morning
and he tells us more and then there's
the third hour usually fabrega was about
three hours with him
and the third hour was blowout time
because we bought him also said look so
the spirit was there
and that's when he could say sometimes a
sharp word to a booker
he cited his vote to arouse yourself and
wake yourself up and
and talk talk to a book out of a
bringing
and all of a sudden he picks himself up
and he's and he starts dancing so we all
dance we knew that this is the end of
the fabregan
he didn't sit back down once he got up
and he started to dance you knew that
fabregas ending
but it didn't end right there we danced
in circles i could see them like the
barbecue seed and we danced in circles
and then afterwards many times he made a
cooler he made a somersault
and we and the intent was we should
emulate him and we made somersaults too
i don't know if this was at every number
it was a many fabregas and this was the
end of the fabregan
but it doesn't finish there then he
walked
himself to the steps to go down the
steps from the basement
on this on the third floor i believe
if he was very shaky someone had to hold
him but if not he would walk himself
down
and you could see how he's you know
trying to control himself
after taking quite a bit of muscular
this three-hour experience was
exhilarating
it if you didn't wake up the next
morning to learn how to see this
you weren't at the fabric and it was
impossible what do i mean
yeah of course if you went on to playing
by with your with your friends and you
stayed up most of the night you didn't
get up the next morning but
normally after a fabregan
with a good a good vibranium like that
mix describing now
the next day we had a a strong russian a
strong will
to be at the fabric to be a crusader
citizen to get up in the morning
these fabregas for us for these two
years
changed our view of life
see rabbi khan rabbi or his father is
very different he can for brain for five
six seven
hours and take one in one idea and
dissect it from all
and he doesn't say so this story it's a
whole different he changes that biel
changes the
night cup you know the bavavic is the
famous myself and a beholder out there
comes to labor it comes to ebay biting
them cup
bursting them cup
but y'all changed our head the way they
think about something
and that's a very important thing and
maybe the main thing but that's a
different that could
