Bais Nissan (2nd of Nissan) - Part V

00:01 The hemsech to the earlier installments been a gear to Beis Nissan, the Yemai Lulav of the Rebbe Rashab. We continue now with installment number five, and we'll discuss various occasions where the Rebbe made mention and derived lessons from Beis Nissan over the course of the many years. One occasion was Shabbos Parshas Shemini tov Shin lamed nineteen seventy. It was then fifty years since the hisdalkus of the Rebbe Rashab. The Rebbe said as follows, that here is the occasion to mention Beis Nissan which falls out in the coming week, the following week, in which fifty years of the hisdalkus of the Rebbe Rashab are completed, and the mele also fifty years marking since the beginning of the Nasius, the leadership of the previous Rebbe. Because since immediately, as the verse says, that as soon as the sun sets, the sun rises. The mele of the Nasius, the leadership was passed on to the previous Rebbe. And as the Rebbe refers to the halachic term in regards to Yerusha, inheritance, that in the first moment, inheritance goes over to the oldest son, especially when he is a one and only child, and especially when it get to leadership. So the mele, there isn't a moment that should be a buffer intermission between the hisdalkus of the Rebbe Rashab and the beginning of the Nasius of the previous Rebbe. And when it get to fifty years, the fiftieth anniversary, the Rebbe says, as it is known, of the Chasid, Rab Salmon Duchman, who actually passed away just a

02:23 few months earlier, to be more exact, about six weeks earlier. The Rebbe quotes from him that he would customarily say when a jubileum, which means a jubilee, a jubilee that comes, that arrives, a special year, fifty years anniversary since the passing of the Rebbe Rashab, and the mele there needs to be niskorim, it needs to be remembered in order that it should also come down a practical sense. And the mele, the Rebbe leads into what is mentioned in Sfarim, that when a specific, special, auspicious time comes, we need to take an account of everything that happened in the past up till now. In the same sense that before Shabbos, a person needs to take an account what took place over the six days of the week. Likewise, when it comes to a sabbatical year, what took place in the six years that led up to the sabbatical year, the mele, the Rebbe concludes it's appropriate that in the days and the hours that are still left till Beis Nissan, everyone should make a cheshbon, take an account what passed over him the meshech of the fifty years, and he should remember how the matzav, the status was in the time of the Rebbe Rashab, and everyone, whoever doesn't want to fool himself, knows what the Rebbe Rashab wanted, what he hoped from Chasidim. Likewise, when it get to the previous Rebbe, everybody knows what he hoped, what his expectations were from Chasidim. And the main thing is that a person should never be satisfied from

04:13 himself, but to make a cheshbon tzedek, a sincere cheshbon review on everything that took place the meshech of the fifty years. And those that were not born yet at that time should make a cheshbon what took place in the last twenty or thirty years. And it also needs to come down in a practical sense, not enough in speech, but also in deed. In the year Tov Shin Mem, ten years later, nineteen eighty, the Rebbe then again referred to Beis Nissan. The Rebbe said this is the day that the previous Rebbe became the successor from his father, the Rebbe Rashab. And the Rebbe again mentions the halachic terms in regards to inheriting, that it goes over simultaneously without any delay. And the previous Rebbe made up with his father in the year Tov Resh Peh, nineteen twenty, the year of the passing of the pre-- of the Rebbe Rashab, that his Nasius, his leadership should be bechesed, in a very gracious, very lenient way. So surely the Rebbe says it is being accomplished in a very lenient way, and it continues till today. And the Rebbe says, now it is sixty years since the previous Rebbe accepted the Nasius in nineteen twenty. And this is how it continues till Mashiach Tzidkeinu. And the Rebbe concludes there should be resolutions. The resolutions should be drawn down and expressed also Through a mashove, a good thought or a good word or a good deed. Now we go on to Tov Shin Mem Beis, 1982, an interesting inyan that

06:22 the Rebbe mentioned there and referred to Beis Nisan. The Rebbe was speaking in Shabbos Parsha Vayikra, Tov Shin Mem Beis, when he geared to the inyan of the galus exile and all the different trials and tribulations that the Jewish nation went through in the four exiles that they experienced. And the Rebbe continues, we find ourselves now in Chedish Nisan. And despite all what was mentioned above in regards to the suffering in the exiles, Rish Chedish Nisan already came and went and was still in galus. And the Rebbe continues, even more yet, even Beis Nisan, the Yemai Lulav of the Rebbe Rashab, which on the day of the Lulav, on the day of a passing of the tzaddik, everything that he has accomplished during his lifetime is reflected then and it's reflected every year when this very day comes and it brings down Yeshuas for Yidden here in this physical world. And the Rebbe says, we find ourselves now already in Gimel Nisan, which means Beis Nisan has passed and Rish Chedish Nisan and Beis Nisan elevate in that third day of Nisan and still we are in galus. And the Rebbe concludes that if Yidden would request and clap on the table, knock on the table and demand Mashiach should come now, they would accomplish Mashiach's arrival now, even be Yemai Shabbos. The question is, how could he come on Shabbos? There's limitations. So the Rebbe says, when Mashiach will come, he will also answer this question. So the Rebbe says that not only that

08:26 when a person sees children singing, we want Mashiach now, he joins them, but he should also want on his own and request on his own in a very sincere way that Mashiach should come now. And the Rebbe's face was very serious. Then the Rebbe paused for a moment and smiled and concluded the sicha as the Magidim, the speakers would usually conclude their sermon, Uvola Tzion Geil V'neimar Roman, that the Redeemer should come to Tzion and V'neimar Roman. And the Rebbe concludes that it should be the will of Hashem that the Beis Hamikdash should be built in our days very soon, V'sein chalkeinu b'seiros echa. And you should give us our share in your Torah. Im yirtza Hashem in the coming installment, we will continue with Beis Nisan.
