0192 - Kaddish in the Year 5725

00:01 In the year of Tov Shimchovei, which is the year of Avelis after the Rebbe's mother, the Rebbe would daven for the Omed three times a day. A Shchedish and Oval doesn't daven, so he didn't daven for the Omed. He would come out Shchedish to Shir Shel Yem. After Hala, when the Elom, the minyan held by Shir Shel Yem, the Rebbe would come out and would say the Kadesh after that, and then would stay for Kriyas HaTeyre. Now, we didn't know what's gonna happen after Kriyas HaTeyre, because normally the Rebbe would come Mondays and Thursdays, and a Shchedish to Kriyas HaTeyre, stay throughout Kriyas HaTeyre, and when they put the Sefer Teyre back, he would leave, go back to his room. But this time, since it's, it's, uh, Avelis, and the Rebbe had to say the Kadeshim at the end of davening after the Yom and Aleinu and Tilim and then the Mishnayis. So we didn't know what the Rebbe's gonna do. Is he gonna go back into his room after Kriyas HaTeyre and come back at the end of davening when they're holding by Kaveh, by Enkel Ekenu? Or is he gonna stay inside the whole time till the end of davening? The problem is, if he stays inside, after you put the Sefer Teyre back, everybody has to take off their tefillin and put, and put on their Tamus tefillin, which takes time, and then you have to daven Musaf. So if the Rebbe would stay, what would happen? Nothing is happening. Everyone is

01:10 on his own, taking off their tefillin, their tefillin, and putting on their Tamus tefillin. The Rebbe's gonna stand there like that and wait. So we didn't know what's gonna happen. Maybe the Rebbe's gonna go back into his room and then come back again at the end of davening. L'peel, what happened was, the first Rosh Chodesh, the Rebbe stayed. After Kriyas HaTeyre, he didn't go back into his room, he stayed. So I don't remember exactly what happened the first time it happened, but the other times, when we knew what's gonna happen, that the Rebbe's gonna stay there, wait till the end of davening, and it's not nice that the Rebbe's standing there, and there's no minyan going on. Everyone is putting on their Tamus tefillin. So what we did was like this. Those years, not everybody put on their Tamus tefillin. We would put it on when you become 18 years old, and even that you had to ask the Rebbe first. Now, a whole group of us, our kitah, were not 18 years old yet. So we made up that as soon the Sefer Teyre is put back, we would run into Cheder Sheini, take off Rosh's tefillin in a second as fast as you can without even wrapping it, and running right back inside the shul. And the chazan would start Musaf right away so the Rebbe shouldn't have to wait. And that's exactly what happened. The Rebbe stayed, and we took off the tefillin right away, and right away the chazan started Musaf,

02:20 and the Rebbe stood there throughout Musaf. And then after Musaf, he would say these Kadeshim. But then we had another question. Since the Rebbe l'chatchilah only came in to the Kadesh of Shir Shel Yem, so the Rebbe missed the first Kadesh before Hedu, after the Beishmael. So we didn't know how the Rebbe's gonna make up that Kadesh. So I remember the first Rosh Chodesh, which was Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan Tov Shimchovei. By Mincha, when the Rebbe walked into Mincha, always as soon as the Rebbe walked in, the chazan would start Ashrei. But here the Rebbe walked in, and we saw the Rebbe turned to the Mishnayis. And before the chazan started davening, the Rebbe said Mishnayis, the same Mishnayis you usually say after davening. So the Rebbe said it, and then said the Kadesh d'Rabonon, and then Mincha started. So we saw that the Rebbe's making up that Kadesh that he missed before, he's making it up before Mincha. And that's what happened the rest of the times of the year. Every Rosh Chodesh, the Rebbe would, before Mincha, before Ashrei of Mincha, the Rebbe would say the Kadesh. And from then on, that became the say that even other times. Because like this, there were certain times of the year when the Rebbe would say Kadesh for other reasons. He didn't daven for the Omer, but he said Kadesh. So here also, he missed the first Kadesh. So till this year, till Chovei, so the Rebbe that, and Chanamim, missed the Kadesh. But since he

03:32 started doing it Chovei, when he was a novel after his mother, he continued doing it. And ever, ever the Rebbe said Kadesh. So before Mincha, the Rebbe would say Mishnayis, say a Kadesh d'Rabonon, which made up the Kadesh that he missed in the morning. And then Mincha continued, and then he would say the Kadeshim after davening like you do normally after Mincha.
