FYI, "אדמו"ר אור ישראל מסטאלין זיע"א" was born in תרכ"ט, which made him all of 5 (!) years old at the time of the story. By the way, Reb Hirsh Margolis was the elter zeide of Dov Eliach, mechaber of ",הגאון" and no fan of Chassidim. Funny how these things work.

if he was born as you say in 5659... and the story took place in 5634, how do you gather he was 5 years old... he wasnt born yet.
ReplyDeletesomeones got their dates/math wrong. maybe me.. i dont know.
Oops. it is me! I misread the chof as a nun.
ReplyDelete5629 is what I said, Shmuel, not 5659
ReplyDeleteThat is what a real chosid is all about.
ReplyDeleteso stoliner chasidim are not allowed to have funny believes just lubavitcher?
ReplyDeletejust wonder if only lubavitcher chasidim are allowed to have funny believes stoliner not?
ReplyDeleteI think that Unknown and jony klutz is the same person, they both say the same thing and misspell 'beliefs'
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the date is a misprint
ReplyDeleteNot such a funny belief.It's similar to the inyan found in the gemureh of "psoik li psukcha" and using a chaider yingels possuk as a sign min shomayim.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand if anyone thinks you are supposed to "listen" to what a 5 year old has to say, based on the 5 year olds intellect, that indeed is a starnge belief, that hopefully the Tzig is not pushing
shmeryl well it's the same person does your comment answer the question?
ReplyDeletelubavitch rebbi - as recorded in the "igros hakodesh" - had problems with time frame & names, regarding the "geniza chirsonos" letters, he came up with a very simple explanation "the story must be true yet the writer (hamatik)did not do a good job, espeicialy when he was in a rush".
ReplyDeleteintresting to note: the writer only made mistakes when it came to dates...

ReplyDeleteI Karlin they have no problem with a Yenuka Rebbe in the crib, so they dont censor,or apply,or trying to be apologetic. This is their Belief system
