...ס'פאסירט אין די שענסטע משפחות




























It's causing quite a sensation, this story. The TAY Rebbe's grandson. The Kretschnifer's grandson. A Chabadnik. A Meshichist, נאך צו דערצו! And he's apparently some sort of mashpia as well! Truth be told, It's a bit embarrassing... The Meshichism part, that is. I hadn't heard of him before this week. But what can we say? Sometimes a bochur finds his place where his parents don't want it, and there's not much they can do, other than bite their tongues. The fact that this doesn't happen MORE OFTEN in Rebbishe kreizen is what should surprise people, not the other way around. Any half-serious kid that grows up in such a family should be banging the doors down trying to get out of there. He's tired of the infighting, the fawning over him when he just wants to be like any other kid, and the lack of privacy. Chabad is very often the antidote for any kid from suffering from OverRebbish disease. I do not really know what his zeides have to say about his transition, but judging from other such stories it's probably not a reason for them to rejoice. They like their eyniklech to follow in their ways.

nu tzig. Maybe he's right about being a mishichist. Reading the article, he doesn't seem like a shallow guy. Maybe there is more to it than you dare to admit. And it's true that there is a huge movement towards learning chassidus in E"Y. Things are moving. Are you with us or against us?

Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציג said...

the movement towards learning Chassidus is DESPITE the Meshichism, ועל אפם וחמתם של התמהונים

Who was "maavir oso midoso and midaaso" ? Was there weed involved? All one can do is feel sadness and sympathy for his family.

It doesn't seem like it was a move based on a great deal of intellectual stimulation.

Ma yaaseh haben shelo yechta.

Rochev Al Chamor said...

how does this avriech that learned a few perakim tanya know exactly Hilchas Moshiach better then Reb Zalmen Gopin or Reb yoel who was by the Rebbe from fay one.

Yerucham said...

How does Rochev Al Hachamor who learned a few maamorim know hilchos Melachim better than Rabbi Heschel Greenberg, a Gaon Olam in Nigleh.

There are geonim on both sides of the Meshichist debate.

And, Reb Yoel doesn't deny that the Rebbe could be Moshiach. He just argues that it isn't important in the general scheme of things.

Rochev Al Chamor said...

Yeruchem
" a Gaon Olam in Nigleh."
Rav Greenberg is a nice Talmid Chochem, but no Goan Olem
I read and I own all his seforim on Rambam hilchos Tefilin and on Chanuka.
But on hilchas melochim he did not say noting original at all.

Rochev Al Chamor said...

Yeruchem
I believe that Rav Greenberg knows more Nigleh then Reb Yoel,but does not have the clarity of Reb Yoel in Nigleh and Chasidus.
And for sure does not know the Rebbes way of thinking as well as Reb Yoel, as the Rebbe wrote in the famous Tzetel by the Rabonim saga

menachem said...

Reb Yoel in an interview with kfar chabad going back 5 or 6 years ago,accused the mishichistim to be worse than the maskilim,yezbeksa,etc.
Considering that most chabadskers are mishicihstim,isnt he agreeing with rav shach??????

Yerucham said...

So to summarize the position of Rochev al Hachamor:

"I'm an anti because Reb Yoel understands the Rebbe's position in Hilchos Melachim better than anyone else."

Got it.

#1, you are taking his words out of context.
#2
most Chbadskers are not moshiachists.

Rochev Al Chamor said...

Yeruchem
I am not a Moshiachist, not because Reb Yoel, I can read simple words in Rambam with out the help of Reb Yoel. But to come now to Chabad and say different then Reb Yoel on issues that pertain chassidus and the Rebbe is ignorance and arrogance.
Like saying you know the Mitteler Rebbe better then Reb Hilel Paricher

Reb Yoel still has plenty of teshuva to do for fanning the messainism until gimmel tammuz. A one time simple "ta'isi" isn't enough to undo the damage.

Tzig, give it up! He discovered Lubavitch, and guess what, they couldn't hide from him the Sichos of the Nuns (which you are apparently yet to discover)!

Either embrace the Rebbe fully, or go back to which ever kreiz you came from!

Zalman Z said...

For the record, in that letter five years ago, Reb Yoel only lambasted those who write "Shlita," nothing else! The absence of any other criticism in that latter speaks volumes.

Besides, all those that know him (and i mean, ACTUALLY know him), know that he's a closet Mishichist. He even had a Yechi sign in front of his house until a few months ago when it was blocked by a new swinging chair they installed, so he had it removed as to not block the Rebbe's face. Nevermind the Moshiach flag (yes, the YELLOW type) that sits behind the couch in his living room, awaiting to be waved aloft when the Rebbe's nisgaleh...

Tzig, you're a professed "Lubavitch defender." But the Lubavitch you defend, is not one that i, or any other chossid who doesn't pick and chose which part of Chabad they like, would recognize. So thanks but no thanks!

Dont tell for a yid as Reb Yoel to do teshuvah, look in mirror and repent for your own sins.
Reb Yoel have said already 20 times Toisi. But he still had to say before Gimel Tamuz what he felt, since he is not a politician

and if he is a Meshichist? then he is what????

Moshe Moshel said...

You realize that your response reveals I've struck a chord. He has about a qurter of the blame that a new Rebbe was not crowned after the Rebbes passing.

The Baal Shem had a replacement, the Alter Rebbe had a replacement, but not the "current?" Rebbe! What gives? It was similar to the maise of the meraglim, that didn't want to deal with a loss of power and influence.

The Rebbe was TRULY a unique leader but Moshe Rabeinu said already that klal yisroel should not be as sheep without a leader.

Dor hatishiyi needs a Rebbe.

why is he Naar that he became chabad? why is ר"ל that he is a Meshichist? and who certified you as the Chochem that decides on this issues? Did your mother tell you as a kid that you are Klug when you knew 7 of the 10 parsha questionnaire of you melamud?lets hear a devar chochme and all the readers will decide

Yehushoa did not replace Moshe Rebinie at all, he did not give no torah, he did not go up to Shumaim. Thir was no New Moshe Rebanie. Yehoshoa is not even from the Shiva royim,he was a technical leader, obviously a Novi as the 100'sof neviem that were after him.So if believed that a Rebbe is a holy concept, and if their is no Rebbe you close that concept for good, and you go back to the concept of Rabinim as Klal yisroel had all the years.

You say:
"Sometimes a bochur finds his place where his parents don't want it, and there's not much they can do, other than bite their tongues."

Firstly, you speak with loose lips because you have no idea what HIS parents think of him. They, by the way, cannot be happier! They learned from him. Why right from the get-go, because the matter has to do with Moshiach, the crux of the Jewish religion, must you blindly fight tooth and nail to scorn the issue? Does it not behoove a Jew to first learn about the subject, learn about why this young man - who is of a great mind, you should know, came to his conclusions. He did not wake up one day and "pooff!' a Moshichist become. he toiled in Torah before he came to his eventual conclusion - unlike yours that was made as soon as you heard the association!

Why is there no Rebbe? Because the power brokers decided not to make a new one.

is this part of the Besht? or later rebbes? since you are the big chosid, can u give us a synopsis of what are the criterias of a Tzadik?Neshoma Kelolis? take it from the Meor einiem or Moar Veshomesh...
the only place where the Alte Rebbe discuuses hiskashrus at length, is on a Tzadik that is not alive. He writes about Tzadikim in early part of Tanya, but on Hikashrus he writes only on a Tzadik that is Yatir Mibechyoi...

"who is of a great mind, you should"
what does this "Great Mind" know that we dont know?
Does he have a new peshat in the Rambams Veim Nehareg? or a new source fron 5 books of Geula? Whatever he will find outside of the sefer Hayad does not matter. According to the Rebbe its as kefira as saying Aschalta Degeula on the modern state of Israel. In his interview he is only repeating the cliches.
Bottom line currently the Rebbe is not Moshiach, and maybe he will be? but maybe the Alter rebbe will be too, and maybe the Ariza"l or the old Krechnifer?

The mazkirus and the heads of a few mosdos, like agu"ch etc. Were the ones who could have started the process to crown a new Rebbe and chose not to. If a new Rebbe had been proclaimed imperitave by the likes of R Yoel, as in every chasidus that had to look for a succesor where there wasn't an abvious choice an apropriate candidate would have been found.

Thinking back to the heafy days of the nuns, when we heard daily reports from r butman about the rebbes condition and coronation. With the great general lubavitch certainty that the Rebbe was moshiach, even by those who didn't say yechi. The shock and speechlessness when the Rebbe actually died until the meshichisten founded a brand new theology on "afilu min hameisim". Those were the days of utter confoundedness and confusion which led to the current situation.

I always knew that Moshiach is for everyone, the Haughty,the Sick, The Rich, The Poor , The Stupid and the Baal Aviero. Veatem Tilkoti Echod Lechod..as the Rebbe used to say.
If you can not explain Moshiach for the whole universe, then you and your GREAT MIND are barking on the wrong Moshiach.

So far they did not find a Neshoma, not from the bies horav and not from outside, so what should they do?
The Rebbe said that everyone should get a Rav and a Mashpia, and close shop on that concept.
Besides, all other Rebbes are Rebbes because the chasidim get for the Eigel Hazhov a wardrobe of multi colored Bekiches and 8" crown shtriemel with some black polished hubcaps SUV's
And he becomes the Neshoma Kelolis, and everybody knows the vort of the Premishlaner, that even if you believe in a 2x4, then he will make you mofsim.
In Chabad they dont have that mesorah, not in Mamorie Admor hazoken and not even in the Geniza...

1) Rebbetzin Leah Kahn (nee Butman IIRC) is a meshichistke, and that is why the home still sports paraphernalia of a certain type. Anyone who knows anything about Reb Yoel knows he is not exactly the type to handle even the simplest do-it-yourself project, so the sign remains.

2) Who in the world could any so-called power brokers in Chabad appoint as Rebbe? They would have more power if they did find a rebbele whom they could manipulate.

You guys in Chabad should do better. I live in Lakewood. There are hundreds of yungeleit desperate for a little something extra in their life. Why is Chabad not attracting them? Do you know how many people become Breslovers in Lakewood? Why can't Chabad appeal to their intellectual side? Believe me, the hisnagdus is not as baked in as you would believe. I am personally fine with my misnagdishe life, but I would love to see Lakewood turned over by some 'choshuve yungeleit' going over to the dark side.

for the first time, scientific proofs are blended with scriptural sources to underpin Meshichistic ideology/faith. see the Amazon e book "The Rebbe is physically alive in this world".The famous double split experiment (quantum physics) is engineered into the equation with dynamic consequential ramifications

Unknown said...

watched the video---there is compelling and persuasively emphatic evidence, that the soldiers in the field have assumed complete ideological control of Chabad. Simultaneously, those "at headquarters" manifest with indecisive sterility. All is for good and "meant to be", however the joyous ,Daas, driven energy of the Rebbe's soldiers manifests in stark and sad contrast to the 'front men" who appear insipid and strangled by protocol. The Rebbe encapsulates and embodies unflinching courage. His troops are gearing off this infinite energy and bravery (the folly of Holiness) and the essence of the soul----the intellect of which is infinitely greater than the restrictive parameters of physical, external logic (rational/tree of knowledge intellect) Sent via my BlackBerry from Vodacom - let your email find you! see Amazon e books "the Rebbe is physically alive in this world"___scientific and scriptural proofs
