The 12th & 13th of Tamuz: Part 11

00:00 The hemsekht of the earlier installments been a year to Yud Beis Yud Gimel Tammuz. We're now continuing with installment number eleven, where we will discuss additional aspects of the Yud Beis Tammuz celebration. When the Rebbe's biography, published originally in the beginning of the Hayim Yeim in the Shalshelis HaYachas, when it was updated and handed in to the Rebbe in Tov Shin Nun, nineteen ninety, the Rebbe reviewed it and edited it. There was a paragraph regarding the Rebbetzin, the Nageah to Yud Beis Tammuz, Taf Resh Pe Zayin, nineteen twenty-seven. As known, the previous Rebbe chose his middle daughter, the Rebbetzin, that she should travel and accompany him to Kastrama. In the Hayim Yeim, right after the Rebbe's biography, there's a paragraph that appears right under the title, "Ishte the Rebbetzin." This was added and included in the Rebbe's biography after Chov Beis Schwat, Tov Shin Mem Ches, after the Ptila of the Rebbetzin, nineteen eighty-eight. In the paragraph, there's a sentence that says the following. Read it first in Hebrew and then in English. In English, "She was also the first to publicize the news of the Geula in the Lubavitch courtyard in Leningrad." When the Rebbe edited this sentence, the Rebbe crossed out the word and in addition to that, the Rebbe crossed out the word to publicize, and instead, the Rebbe chose the word to relay. After the words to relay the Besuras HaGeula, the Rebbe added the following words, By phone from Kastrama to the residence of her father, the previous Rebbe, in

02:48 Leningrad, where he lived at the time. So reading the sentence in Hebrew as the Rebbe edited it is She was the first to relay the news of the Geula, relaying the Besuras HaGeula by phone from Kastrama to the residence of her father in Leningrad. Another aspect that the Rebbe spoke, Shabbos Parsha Masai Tov Shin Chof Zayin, nineteen sixty-seven. The Rebbe, while discussing the miracles of the Six Day War, which was a little earlier that summer, nineteen sixty-seven, the Rebbe stated in the Sicha the following, " Chas ve'shalom to designate it as a Yom Terf with Hallel since we don't institute additional Yomim Tevim. Likewise, Yud Beis Tammuz, indeed it is a day of redemption for all Jews, as the previous Rebbe testified that all Jews are included in his redemption, but surely no one considered to institute," seems like on a steady basis, "the recital of Hallel even without a bracha." And the Rebbe continues, "It is a Yom Terf prati, an individual Yom Terf, as we find by Gedali Yisroel Jewish leaders who designated a Yom Terf for themselves and their families in the day that a miracle took place by them. And this was in order to focus on the miracle and thank Hashem, and especially to utilize it for inspiration and strength in Torah and Mitzvahs." Around fourteen years later, an interesting Yechidas took place on Yud Gimel Tammuz with the Skoli Rebbe and his grandfather, the illustrious Rabbi Leibel Tsivyak, alav ha-shalom. The Skoli Rebbe asked the Rebbe three questions in

05:20 Tanya, and the Rebbe responded in length. The Skoli Rebbe then introduced his grandfather, Rabbi Leibel Tsivyak, to the Rebbe. When the Rebbe heard the name Rabbi Leibel Tsivyak, the Rebbe commented, Your name, your reputation is all over the world. All the different aspects of Moesness of institutes. Rabbi Leibel Tsivyak was a tamim, a tamid and timchit mimim in Warsaw. In the Yechidas, he told the Rebbe that after they received the news Yud Beis Tammuz Taf Resh Pe Zayin in nineteen twenty-seven about the release of the previous Rebbe, his grandfather sent him to the omit and instructed him to say Hallel. The Rebbe asked him what city did this take place? Rabbi Leibel answered in Warsaw, and he added, "I also had the zechus to stand under the Rebbe's chuppah holding one of the four beams that held up the chuppah." In conclusion, the Rebbe said, The Rebbe said, "Very nice. You see that eventually we meet."
