Many of you may know about the Klausenburger Rebbe's recent trip to Eretz Yisroel to speak at the Siyum of the Shas Oz VeHodor. That event needs a post of its own, how the whole world of Rabbonim was coerced into showing up at nothing more than a business venture, but that's for another time. Once there he made the rounds and visited any Rov, Rebbe or Rosh Yeshiva that he could - besides for his own brother, of course, who was in America at the time, fanning the flames of the great split between the two here in America according to some. There was one visit that he made that bothered me in particular, the visit to Rav Elyashiv ZG"Z. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with him visiting, it's just what went on there that really bothered me. Never have I seen a Chassidishe Rebbe who's so at home when others come to visit him lose himself when in the presence of a Litvisher Godol. It's as if he totally forgot that he's a Rebbe of hundreds of Chassidim, he was almost like a 9th grade Rebbe of a local Mesivta visiting.
We often speak here about the general state of Chassidim today, and how many have lost their pride and their sense of accomplishment. They're not sure why they're any better than those who have not what they have, and practice not what they practice. They think that all they have over the Litvishe is a different code of dress and a more stringent level of women's Tznius. They forget about the Mesirus Nefesh that the Baal Shem Tov and Talmidov Acharov had to found, build and spread Chassidus, and they think that it's all about dress codes and customs. In America and Europe they feel proud and special, since in comparison to the Litvishe and more modern they seem more frum and committed to Yiddishkeit. Once they get to Eretz Yisroel Bichlal and Yerushalayim Bifrat they lose their pride. They see their brethren of non-Chassidic persuasion be just as - if not more - committed to Yiddishkeit, and doing it on a shoestring budget, without the luxuries they're used to in the US. One look at Rav Elyashiv's house (evem all nice and painted) shows you all you need to see. No mounds of out of season fruit in huge silver dishes. No huge silver decanters with matching little LeChaim cups. No flashy "Rebbishe " clothing. Just plain old Torah and Pashtus. When the Klausenburger saw that Hut er Zich Ingantzen Farloren....
I'm gonna be nice here, Tzig--or at least I promise to try--but what you are describing, in my opinion, is the greatness of the Klausenberger Rebbe. He SHOULD be completely taken by such a lifestyle.
ReplyDeleteBut I sense something more here, something which I found disturbing. Why SHOULD a chussid--even in America--FEEL more frum than a Litvisher Yid? Why should he fee more furm than a modern orthodox Yid? I have never encountered a litvisher yid--the real dealwho could be described--in pnimius terms--as less frum than an ADMOR. I would suggest that you develop more ahavas Yisroel and a more positive look on other Jews.
Mayshe
ReplyDeleteI speak of a sense of pride as to who you are and what you subscribe to. It's not a silly haughtiness. I'm not telling them to feel good about themselves and not change, I'm saying be proud of who you are!!!
remember the buisness venture how shazar placed his hands on the rebbes shoulder and the rebbes kissed him on the cheek he embarresed plenty of chasidim but chasidim in kfar chabad cashed in heavy on this embrace
ReplyDelete>>"In America and Europe they feel proud and special, since in comparison to the Litvishe and more modern they seem more frum and committed to Yiddishkeit."
ReplyDeleteI think the above sentence premises pride by comaprison--that's not an observation rooted in pnimius. One can feel appreciation for the mesirus nefesh of chassidim, I suppose, but, believe me, all Jews were moser nefesh. I don't think the paragaph you wrote advocate pride for being who you are.
What cooked your goose?
ReplyDeleteWhat a loser you are.
Now you think that Oiz Vehodor is just a business venture.Oh, and what is Lubavitch incorporated, not a business?Tell that to the people hit on by your prfessional fundraisers aka schnorrers.Tell that to your buddy Berel the schnorrer
The Tzig is very 'proud' of his tziganeh backround
ReplyDeletethe tzig remarks that the Klauseburger visited everyone besides his bro.Your Rebbe visited nobody!
ReplyDeleteI guess if you are the self proclaimed Nosi hadeyr ess iz andersh!
Daloy lies Daloy chbsker pravda
Now you think that Oiz Vehodor is just a business venture
ReplyDeleteRav A J Soloveitchik thinks so too.
"Rav A J Soloveitchik thinks so too."
ReplyDeleteAnd who died and made him expert in book publishing? That he doesn't see any maaloh in Oz Vehodor over the others (his words) just goes to show he has no clue in this area. Let me tell you - Oz Vehodor is by far superior to anything else produced heretofore. Is is also a business? Perhaps. And therefore what? This Shas is worthy of being celebrated, what a pleasure it is to use it!
One guy thinks oiz vehodor is a business venture.Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWhile you are at it ask him vohs ehr halt vegen Lubavitch.......
Rabbi Elyashev looked positively annoyed. And who wouldn't be? This Rebbe intruded on him with a stupid photo op, fawned all over him with stupid compliments, and, his obsequious demeanor notwithstanding, had nothing to say...
ReplyDeleteAnd you people think it is important fro Chabad to have a new Rebbe at all costs? Really now?
great post tzig- i guess that being exposed to the truth of r elyashivs torah is a bit much for anyone- the rebbe is like a shy teenager with a crush,
ReplyDeleteanybody normal has hachno'o for the godol hador.
ReplyDeletethis is more than hachna'a, its rambling and begging for recognition and acceptance while the godols eyes kep wandering back to his gemara
ReplyDeleteAt around the 5:00 mark Rav Elyashiv crosses his fingers.... just noticing.
ReplyDeleteChnyock
ReplyDeletewho made him the godal hador? is he the biggest Boki? Amkun?
Thank you tzig for bringing our attention to this video clip especially. It truly gives a crystal clear picture of Rav Elyashiv in a "real life" situation. Yasher koach and tizke lemitzvas.
ReplyDeleteThe points you make in this post are valid, but it seems you expect too much from today's crop of young Rebbes (and Rosh Yeshivas)who are still wet behind the ears and relative yinglach and will need a lot of time to grow into the shoes of their fathers and grandfathers.
Don't forget that in the case of Klausenburg, the old Rebbe lost his entire first family in the Holocaust. The youngsters who took over after he died were very young and from his marriage from after the war. They will need time to grow up.
Some Rebbes will fall by the wayside and others will flourish. Such is the way of "natural selection" in life and it applies to Rebbes as much as to anyone. As it says in the ונתנה תקף :
מי ינוח ומי ינוע ... מי ישפל ומי ירום
Even the Ba'al Shem Tov was not "produced" overnight! He was a melamed tinokes, a shammes of a shull and a ba'al hagolah at various points in his early life before he became known to a select few s the BESHT!
Remember that Yaakov Ovinu, Moishe Rabbeinu and Dovid Hamelech enjoyed the company of sheep, try to imagine all the smell and hassles, before they were were able to mature and assume the mantles of leaershipo of the Klal.
Manhigim don't become Gedoilim like "Bar Mitzvah" boys!
don't forget,besides being the posek hador,harav eliashev,is litera;y twice the rebbes age
ReplyDeletechaim
this shows the greatness of the KLaus Rebbe
ReplyDeleteHe went to recognize R Eliashiv's Greatness
i love the way r elyashiv is trying so hard to be nice
ReplyDeleteBy extension, one would expect that Rav Elyashiv shouldn't have been Botul and reverential to Rav Kook (his Mesader Kiddushin if I am not mistaken). He was. Do you think the Baal HaTanya only went to the Gaon because he was 'afraid' of the Malshinim or because he thought Moshiach would come? True Torah personalities are able to effuse kovod to someone who is a Gadol BaTorah. True, the Lubavitcher Rebbe didn't seem to go to anyone else, although I am advised that he did visit a summer camp early on. I don't see anything which would dilute the Chassidic message in the Klausenberger's visit. Did the Lubavitcher Rebbe show too much Kovod to the Rav when he came? The Rebbe saw great eschatological significance in the meeting signalling a meeting of Dor Hashevii on both sides. Why not?
ReplyDeleteThe Lub Rebbe was the gadol in the generation and he tried to hid this all the time
ReplyDeletehad the Lub Rebbe have time, he would have go to visit everyone and give kovod to everyone
Thousand of shailos and letters came to the Lub Rebbe all the time, How do u guys think about having time to visit other Rebbeim?

I browsed thru the Kovetz Teshuvas and I wasnt zoche to see the light.I can see the greatness of his SIL Reb Chaim he has massive bekius in torah.
Hirshel,
ReplyDeleteWhy permit such nonsense as the last anonymous commenter pass the sensor , it brings down the entire "rama" of discussion. Perhaps you should institute a policy that one needs to add to the conversation in at least a semi-intellectual manner (and that applies to those that disagree with you as well as those that you agree with) in order to comment. Please continue to keep us interested and entertained. Good Shabbos
as much as i sympathise with retarded people but anonymous' ramblings deminish the darga of this post. i dont think anyone repects him on tis post no matter what their opinion may be.
ReplyDeleteThe real mistake of the Klauzenberg Rebbe is that he was goires another frum yid which wasn't mekabel from derech Habal-Shem and to you believing in eilu v'eilu divrie elokim chaim, in respect to this issue is losing your pride. I don't know what they talked all I know is from your blog. and you make it sound like that. Also, R' Eliashiv listens to chazors hashatz and doesn't say tehillim,Rambam and 'Chitas' in the middle like all you guys do.
ReplyDeleteI happen to think Anaonomous makes very good points, notwithstanding the ramblings of the haters on this blog. He livens debate, encourage more thinking, and strikes me as the most educated and knowledgable talmid chochom on this post. Kudos to Tzig for being brave enough to allow contrairans on this thread, it adds to his presitge.
ReplyDeleteYeruchim,
ReplyDeleteKindly quote what it is that anonymous said that indicates him being a Talmud Chochom or even semi-educated?! And what part of his rambling actually encouraged you to think?!

Tzigelle,
ReplyDeleteThe Klausengerger was bottel for R. Elyashev because R. Elyashiv is the posek hador and can be his rebbe. All this gobbledygook about mesiras nefesh, ahavas yisroel and shelichus, etc. can't disguise the fact that a persons worth is measured by how much torah he knows and R. Elyashiv at 96 עמו"ש is head and shoulders above all, and has been for decades (except for RS"Z Aurbach).
Ailimisher
ReplyDeleteAltz Gut Un Fein, but the Belzer and Gerrer Rebbes would have a bit more pride. And it's not meant to take away from his (RYSE) Gadlus.
You still wanna know the Reb Aron and the mob story????
>>Kindly quote what it is that anonymous said that indicates him being a Talmud Chochom or even semi-educated?! And what part of his rambling actually encouraged you to think?!
ReplyDeleteThat's difficult to do now seeing as his erudite post was erased.
Rav Eliyashiv is not trying to intimidate but the Admor is clearly intimidated.
ReplyDeletePrediction: His Israeli brother will win the power struggle decisively.
Hirshel
ReplyDeleteWhat is R'Elyashevs view on his grandfather the Leshem who is considered one of the biggest Misnagdic Balai Kabbala ?
His family name he changed from Aronov to Elyashev
"The Klausengerger was bottel for R. Elyashev because R. Elyashiv is the posek hador and can be his rebbe. All this gobbledygook about mesiras nefesh, ahavas yisroel and shelichus, etc. can't disguise the fact that a persons worth is measured by how much torah he knows and R.

ReplyDeleteThis bit of unadulterated b.s really takes the cake. WHERE does Torah state this false measure-of-a-man that you parrot ? R'Elyashiv is a tremendous talmid-chochom, and one of the leading poskim of the last 20 years, but that's it. Do you really believe that he could repeatedly speak on all levels in Torah for (cumulatively) thousands of hours, without a single sefer open in front of him ?! How could anybody semi-realistic even dream of comparing his knowledge to that of the lubavitcher rebbe ? Watch a few videos of the LR's siyummei-mesechtos (or listen to the tapes) and tell me when, in the last 500 years, was such mastery ever seen ?
I think such mastery is seen regularly in any beis medrash. Its not quantity, but quality. And the Rebbe's shiurim are not known for their quality. In fact, I am pretty sure I can do better than the rebbe in pretty much any sugya in nighleh.
ReplyDeleteI love how someone with a goyishe name critices ehrliche yiddin for respecting Rav Elyashuv--calls it "parroting"--and then does the exact same thing when writing about his rebbe. Does no one else see how Steve offers nothing of significance with his ramblings--that he is, in fact, doing a disservice by going way over the logical truthful end?
ReplyDeletethe fact that someone uses a "goyishe" name on a blog means very little.
ReplyDeleteIf a Yid chooses a Goyishe name, it means a lot. We all know the what Chazal say about the Yiddin in Mitzrayim.
ReplyDelete>>How could anybody semi-realistic even dream of comparing his knowledge to that of the lubavitcher rebbe ? Watch a few videos of the LR's siyummei-mesechtos (or listen to the tapes) and tell me when, in the last 500 years, was such mastery ever seen ?
I can. I have little doubt in my mind that I cannot produce the same quality Torah the Rebbe produced in Nighleh. And I don't mean this out of disrespect. Second, I was told that the Rebbe's editors had to correct the Rebbe's misquotes. I know this is controversial, but several people told me this. Finally, "Steve" (r"l!), go by quantity, not quality.
Tzig, any reason my important comment was not posted?
ReplyDeleteit probably wasn't important after all...

ReplyDeleteYour jealousy and sinah to the Lub Rebbe is blinding you and making u a fool
Only looking at your posts, anyone can see that they come from an am haa'retz,and MSR (I WAS TOLD...)
I have no reason to be jealous of the Lub Rebbe. All I was saying was that I can produce Torah of the same stature as the Rebbe did. I wrote this not out of disrespect but as a matter of fact.
ReplyDeleteI wrote this in response to an individual who uses a goyish name, r"l, who employed enormous hyperbole about one individuals as he downgraded the stature of a gadol b'yisroel. Naturally, you did not cry foul then, either. I would say that the only reason you decided to write the motzi shem rah you wrote about me is because you are obviously jealous of me. After all, I did not write nasty things about the Rebbe; you wrote nasty things about me. Second, I was told this by many people, it is documented in print and in the blogosphere.
Regardless of the smart alec handle you are using, it is clear you are a sad man who must accuse others of blinding hatred when they are writing facts. There is nothing objectively foolish about what I wrote. But your heated response and in ability to write with regards does say a lot about your intellectual abilities and your decency as a human being.
Feel free to respond, but, please, act like a mentsch.
Satmar,
ReplyDeleteI fail to see hatred and jealousy in Shmeel's remarks. He may be confident, and that confidency may be justified, but sinah? Jealousy? I don't see it. I do sinah in your posts, though. You should look into that.
shmeel
ReplyDeletethisis your quote
"Second, I was told that the Rebbe's editors had to correct the Rebbe's misquotes. I know this is controversial, but several people told me this"
it is easy for u to follow these ppl who told u this about a Rebbe
There were, are, many ppl jealous about the accomplishments of the Lub Rebbe, who brought more ppl to the Torah than anyone else
This is a result of jealousy and sinah (to make these comments agianst a Gadol whithout knowing 100% and u consider them as a fact)
this shows your low level , who needs to say something like this in a public forum just to knock down a TC.
is this is not MSR, this itself shows your amaartzus

ReplyDeleter u shmeel 2?
>>it is easy for u to follow these ppl who told u this about a Rebbe
ReplyDeleteNo it is not. I do it with great pain. I wrote that I was told the Rebbe misquoted. This is also documented in books which I have seen. I don't blindly follow what they say, I qualify it--as you impliedly noted. According to your own statements, then, it is clear that I have no sinah or (even more ridiculous) jealously of the Lubavitcher Rebbe. You clearly know nothing about the halochos of MSR concerning a talmid chochom as you are calling me an am hooaretz!
Second, if you want to know about a case of MSR, look up the sicha which is quoted by Tzig where the rebbe said MSR about the Chazon Ish after the latter was niftar (that he did not learn the pnimius of Torah).
For the record, I do not know of a single person who is "jealous" of the Rebbe. Not one. I certainly have nothing to be jealous of. This aveirah of jealousy is commontly attributed to those who don't regard the Rebbe as the greatest man in the past 500 years--like the fellow with the goyish name wrote. Unfortunately, it is a completely baseless remark and, in fact, once again, is motzi shem rah. The concept of sinah against the rebbe also has no FACTUAL basis. Seeing as I qualified my statement, I don't see how this can be construed as sinah. Its merely pointing out a flaw in a statement made by someone with a goyishe name. Once again, you failed to bring up the fact that he dismissed a gadol b'yisroel offhand. Clearly, you would not attribute that to sinah or jealousy. And that is because there is no sinah of jealousy here.
I also don't know what you mean by your statement that the Rebbe brought more people to Torah than anyone else. I think such comparisons are ridiculous. And, again, I go by quality, not quantity. I do not believe the rebbe--as far as quality is concerned--was as successful as you make him out to be. Not in his lifetime.
>>this shows your low level , who needs to say something like this in a public forum just to knock down a TC.
Again, this is just an incredibly mean comment. I don't think it makes sense in light of the fact that you only go beserk over one tc as opposed to any other. Clearly, from the way you write to me, you don't really care about right or wrong.
>>is this is not MSR, this itself shows your amaartzus
May H Have rachamanus on u
The only MSR here is yours and the rebbe's about the CI. Not me. I did nothing wrong. I am sorry, but you need to brush up on facts and halacha before you thrown such incredibly disgusting comments out like that toward me.
"the Rebbe's editors"
ReplyDeleteThe Rebbe didn't have editors, the Rebbe himself was the editor. He had transcript writers. So much for your impeccable sources.
My sources are out there--whether you wish to acknowledge them or not. And I apologize, I met his transcript writers. Happy now?
ReplyDeleteLook I am just stating what I read in response to a post written by someone with a goyish name. It was not intended to actually demean the Rebbe. I am fully aware that the position of those who have written these books is disputed.

Can someone find me a source for Rav Hirschprung's comment about the Rebbe? Outside of Chabad? Thank you.
ReplyDeleteWith all due respect to R' Yosef Dov, and I am assuming you are well intended--Rav Hirschprung and the Pnei Menachem held very highly of certain other talmdei chachomim who have been vilified not only by Chabad but, in one case, by the Rebbe, too. According to your statement, did Chabad make put themselves down? Did the Rebbe? I also want to point out that you are melamed zechus someone with a goyish name but not me--a reprehensible act. You are inconsistent and demand respect where you and your group have consistently denied to give to others. That's hypocritical.

R' Yosef Dov,
I am not sure if he referred to the rebbe as THE sar Hatorah of the Dor. certainly, he held others in great esteem as did the Pnei Menachem. I doubt either regarded the rebbe as preeminent. If you have evidence to document the contrary, kindly provide the same. Otherwise, I think there is little logical reason to get as hyperbolic as Steve about the rebbe's greatness. There were other great bokiim in the earlier generations, and based on my observations and familiarity with seforim from gedolim of the earlier generation, I would not assume the rebbe's preeminence as granted--unless I am a chussid of his, which, for reasons I think obvious, I am not.

הגאונים הגדולים בעל מנחת יצחק הר' גדלי' שאר, הרב פינחס מנחם אלטר, הרב שניאור קאטלער, הרב אמ"מ שאך, הרב חיים קנייבסקי, בעל שבט הלוי, הרב משה שטערן, הרב מנשה הקטן, הרב גדלי' פעלדער, הרב בנימין זילבער און מער. ער האט אויכעט געבעטן אן הסכמה פון הרב הירשפרונג און האט אים באוויזן אלע הסכמות און אויך א בריוו פון דעם ליובאוויטער רבין. דאס איז א ציטאטע פון דער הסכמה פון הרב הירשפרונג.
יסלח לי כבודו שלא השבתיו על אתר כי עתותי אינם בידי וגם זה כתבתי רק בקיצור. ואינני יודע מה צריך להסכמתי הלא יש בידו הסכמת כ"ק אדמו"ר הגה"ק רבן של ישראל מליובאוויטש שליט"א ומי יבוא אחרי המלך ...באע"ח יום א' פרשת עקב תשל"ז לפ"ק
איך מיין אז עס פאדער זיך ניט קיינע קאמענטארן
אייער י.ד. ,
באמת האף איך אז זאל שוין קומען א סוף צו א דיסקוסיע איבער א זאך וואס איז קלאר פאר דעם וואס זוכט אמת. איך דאן, אויב עס איז נייטיק צו שיקן די געדרוקטע אויסערגעווינטלעכע אויסדריקן אויף דעם ליובאוויטער רבין פון הרב ר' משה פיינשטיין זצ"ל , הרב ר' שלמה זלמן אויערבאך זצ"ל דעם מנחת יצחק זצ"ל. זאל איינער אפשר געפינען אין דרוק ענלעכע ווערטער מיט וועלכע די דאזיקע ריזן האבן אויסגעדריקט וועגן נאך אימיצן. ( דערמיט וואס אין עטלעכע פאלן האבן זיי געפסקנט אנדערש - זו דרכה של תורה )

ReplyDeleteWhy does someone whose students ability to learn Torah is bought with money for letting Eretz Yisroel to be devided deserve any honor no matter how much Torah he presumably knows?

Satmar C,
ReplyDeleteYour comments are laced with so much hatred and sinas Hashem, it frightens me. Please look into and do teshuva.
Shmeel,
I am in awe of your middos. You handled a rasha with the patience of Hillel.
R' Yosef Dov,
I will look into that haskama, but Rav Hirshprung may have used those terms on someone whom he thought to be truly great, though not neccessarily preeminent. How did he write about others? I am not familar with his haskamos. As far as Rav Shlomo Zalman and R' Moshe are concerns, we all know how he wrote and talked about certain talmidei chachomim who are vilified by Chabad entire--even, in one instance, by the Rebbe himself. I am not so sure that enthusiastic comments can be taken seriously by one Rav Hirschprung--regardless of his greatness--to prove a point.
Wow, Shmeel, you are a true tzadik. I would never have tolerated SatmarC's antics with the nobility and humility you demonstrated. I am in awe.
ReplyDeleteI would like to make some points about your comments
ReplyDeleteI perfectly understand why the Klausebuger Rebbe would be in awe in the presence of the Totah giants in Eretz Yisroel.
While living in Boro Park he is a ROSH LESHIOLIM, not having much contact with real Gedoleh Torah.
I also agree with you that Oiz V'Dodor is just a business venture
In addition if his brothers visit was fanning the flames of hatred, then his visit to Eretz Yisroel was also one of fanning the flames of hatred.
ReplyDeleteNone of the Chassidim from the brother of Eretz Yisroel were punished for going to visit the brother of New York. Conversely, in New York, 14 people were ejected in Boro Park, Williamsburgh, and Monsey for visiting the Brother from Eretz Yisroel. Many of these people in their 40s and 50s, and some of them major Askonim for the Klausenburger organizations.
Ariel,
