david assaf's book says R Israel didnt have a beard.

Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציג said...

not that we need Assaf for that... Maybe it's poetic license

Compare the צורה to his direct descendants...

azigra said...

painting a beard on a clean shaven man is more than a poetic license, no? its a false representation.

Not a Harry said...

What is assaf's claim based on? He wasn't clean shaven, that's a certainty.

azigra said...

based on several contemporary sources, diaries, etc..

there are some ideas about short beards in the sefer Urin Kadoishin, that long hair resembles less daas...

Pinchos Woolstone said...

Not a Harry said...

Irin kadishin only mentions not having a chup. Nothing else about hair/beard.

I think you are mistaking,
its not in Hebrewbooks so I can not proof it for sure
I think the Kedusaht Levie talks about a bloiris

@chortkover fraud
עירין קדישין is spelled and pronounced Irin not Urin. Secondly I have the new edition of the sefer. After perusing the indexes for all references to שער, זקן ודעת. I came up empty. אדרבה if you have a מראה מקום I'd love to see it. I've gone through very significant amount of the seforim.

If you did not see it there, then I have to recheck the source.
I definitely saw it and I checked my brain with a friend that has vast knowledge in Chasidic Seforim and Chasidic Sipurim, he verified it too.
I will check it in a day or 2 in Oirois Yisroel of Mosad Harim Levin, which has no index...and other places

It's as reliable as the picture of the alter rebbe (r. Shmarya schn. must have been an impressive looking fellows).

Russian chusid said...

der heiliger Rizhiner did not have a beard but only 26 hairs.
Broght down in a lot of maise sforim and it is mekibel by all his einiklech.

chusid emes said...

That's true. And I heard that the Boyan rabbe and other einiklach wore not me label the pic
