singing the song of a sadic is one of
the most powerful ways we can connect
ourselves to the essence to the Nish of
that sadic amongst the many gifts Mor
David has given us over the years is
that song a connection to one of the
greatest sadik of Our Generation the
ribet Reba my brother-in-law who is
famous Klein met the he
sang and he was blown away by just his
presence and the way he looks and the
way he sounded and he says to me you got
to come see this sadic I said okay let's
go so on a shabas I met him and I fell
in love fell in love with first sight as
they say the rebba was electrifying he
was so simple and so humble and so holy
he smiled to everyone and he was always
good word for everyone and I fell in
love with him I stayed that night until
7:00 in the morning I came home I
remember not sleeping all night and I I
just couldn't fall asleep it was like I
was I was hypnotized he started hanging
out more and more by the rebel and after
a couple of months and opportunity
opened itself and he became the official
Gabi of the ribba the ribet sereba is
known as a miracle worker he was a
modern day B but more incredible than
the Miracles that the rabit performed
was his hasem his mysterious nees his
minimum mik a day was twice a day once
before and once before and when I say
mik mikah means not just like we know a
nice hot mikah you jump into the M you

very very intense he would to and to and

river called The Nest River he had a
little axe make a hole and jump into T
in the ice water every day twice a day
once at night and once before

had a chance he would pop in to say
hello so he once arrived in the middle
of the winter and the re said oh mandal
perfect timing make gate in V we're
going down to the to to so the D lived
on top of the mountain on the hill and
he went all the way down made a hole in
the ice and he said no M so M
said it's a little out of my league said
promised that one fer will never hurt he
said I had no choice I jumped into the
water and I thought I'm going to die and
he said when it came out it was even
colder because it was wet now and there
was freezing out there the Reit was very
very very smooth very fast he got
undressed quickly within seconds he was
in the water theal say he counted 310

dressed very fast he said he ran up the
hill so fast that he couldn't chase him
when he got to the top of the hill a
shika walked by turned around went back
down and there another 310 V Tios was
another incredible aod by the he will
sit every single night sck a with a sack
sackcloth over his head and tie to his
body with torn clothing and Ashes the
mat Bakery put a
handful and he would sit on the floor
with without shoes and socks M like a
oval like someone who cries by a Leva
for hours and hours and end uh sometimes
between four and 6 hours a night the
only time people would see this was on
Tish he would come into the B with
relatively walk over to thees with a
knife a sharp
[Music]
knife and tear it he would sit down on
the floor put the sack over his head tie
it to his waist without his shoes
without a socks and I had a box full of
ashes and it was spread all over him and
he was start crying
whoever was to see this will never in
their life forget this m told me how he
was once with the reab AAR in Israel
knowing how much theb invests in mning
over the mikdash pressured theb to go to
the CO as we were entering I said theb
going toi would you like to come with us
he said no do you know you know what I
had there I said what happened what
happened so he told me that the last
time he was there theer of the his name
was K he used to take care of the
which were inside he took him
in tells me he went
M and three pillars of fire shot out of
the wall said I ran for my life I'm
scared to go back there but I still
wanted to see his reaction at the co aab
is aab so I pressured him and uh he
agreed to come but he came out of the
car he did not look up once he looked
down entire time his face was flaming
fire and he didn't go all the way to the
kle he after after a few minutes after a
few steps getting like towards the co he
said to me please take me away from I
can't be here it's too much so I asked
him to please bench me I put my head
down put his holy hands on my head and
he benched me by
thei and we left on the way back I said
him re would you ever want to do
here said I would never live through it
the reab didn't eat the entire week he
only ate breakfast at 11:00 at night
after he DAV myv after he saw people
that's when he sat down for a little bit
of a bite to eat he fasted most of his
life when we understand the incredible
mysterious nefes and the sacrifice of
the rebon as aod Hashem it's no wonder
how the rebba was able to perform such
Miracles there was a young couple
American couple who came to the with a
little baby six-month old baby on their
arms this little girl was born blind and
they went to all the doctors in the
world they went to the Boston ey
Institute and they tried everything and
the doctors told them accept it that's
what it is nothing we can do and the re
didn't take his eyes off the baby the
entire time when I finished telling the
reab what they just said he goes like
this he says
Ah this K this kid sees they ask me what
did the rabbi say I'll tell you what the
rabbi said but don't ask any questions
just sayain and go so I said the RAB
said that this kid sees so they said but
but don't say but sayain and leave so
they listen to me they left fast forward
a couple of years I'm sitting in my car
and this lady knocks up my window she
says I am the mother of that child that
came to the Reb and the re told me that
this baby sees he said no what's the
story say absolutely from that day on
she's absolutely 100% normal she sees
she goes to school regular not even
glasses the rebel was in Florida once
and M David was with him and there was a
fellow who came to ask ABA for his son
and daughter-in-law who didn't have
children for almost 10 years and he
asked can go into the room into the
private chambers of the rebi and give
him a ask for a said no problem 10
minutes later the guy left I walk into
the room and the re says why did he let
him in and I panicked like I said first
the first time he ever screamed at me
and I didn't understand like what
happened what's I said re what happened
he said he the kit he pressured me so
hard that I had to promise him so I
started laughing because I figured
whatever the whatever the story was
that's it if he had to promise him it's
it's a done deal he gets from a seat and
he says come here goes over to the
Amed and he takes the Kittle that his R
gave him his CID was on the on the was
ding sticks it into the CID without
without looking just puts it into the
CID grabs the CID and he says to me
turns around to me he says you're my
witness says you're my witness I got the
Goosebumps M she got the chills when he
said that cuz I was sure that this is
signed sealed and delivered he opened up
the S to see where he he put the in and
it came out to Kish and the first line
on top andak whoever hasak can check it
out the end of the first line says
a with his word he created nine months
later they had a baby girl and they
didn't have another child for 17 years
17 years later they had another child
the Reb insisted on being buried in M
New York he didn't want his body to be
taken to AR Isel because he wanted
people to have the opportunity to come
and connect with him at his ever but one
of the most powerful ways we have
available to us through which we can
connect ourselves to the rebel and to
other tadik is through their songs the
rebba would sing this song periodically
especially when it was his Reb's yard
site that middle T which
[Laughter]
is
[Laughter]
the reab would sing this this T at
special occasions at his Reb side he was
AAL of who
was he was a son of the or son he M
with he would sing this song and Mish
sometimes he would tears out of his eyes
that's the way the ribet rebba would
connect himself to the past to his rebba
who connected himself to his Reba
through the power of song and this is
the gift that David has given the world
this connection this portal that we can
connect ourselves to this great sad
