1923: Gerrer Rebbe lifts railway ban

I guess the Gerrer Rebbe didn't hear about the terrible sin of התגרות באומות - Telling Jews to boycott the Polish Railway?! What was he thinking?! Did Moshiach come yet? no. So we're supposed to "turn the other cheek" and say thank you, sir! I am your humble servant until the Messiah arrives. Also, the Rabbi Schneerson of Homel is probably Prof. Fishel Scheerson's father, Reb Schneur Zalman Schneerson, (son of the Retchitcher Rebbe, Reb Sholom Ber, son of MaHaRiL of Kopust) great-grandson of the Tzemach Tzedek and Rov of Homel. I'm not sure what it means when it says that Rabbi Barashansky, who was the Misnagdishe Rov, was a witness that the Rabbis had performed these functions...
Ger doesn't have an isuue with raising the ire of the goyim.

Do you view the Jewish Journal article as positive?
ReplyDeletethat depends. I imagine you're referring to the premise that unaffiliated Jews are comfortable with Chabad, which you see as proof that they don't try to make them Jewish?
ReplyDeleteHirsheleh leyben,
ReplyDeleteWhy are you always so defensive of lubav?
Yankel can explain himself quite well , why are you "deciding" for him what he asked?
CURIOUS LEYBEN
ReplyDeleteI've been doing this for along time
I know exactly why such questions are posed
This ad makes no sense. Tanya and all the other chassidishe seforim mentioned in the ad, are in total contrast to vayoel moshe. The vayoel moshe was of the opinion that nishtakach toras habaal shem tov rachmono litzlan and preaces values that are in direct contradiction to chassidus, and to quote the loshon of the baal hatanya , hashem yechaper baadom.
ReplyDeleteIf you want the full force, I will give it. But you must promise not to edit anything out, in exchange for which I will promise not to make any personal remarks about your Rebbe.
ReplyDeleteOk, Heshy,
ReplyDeleteSo let's discuss:Are you happy with the article or not?
Additionally, what do you think of Manis as Shmuley Boteachs competition on "intimacy"?
In case you weren't being sarcastic, Hershel, Hisgares BeImess is a thing, but his chevre were being abused and harassed (and probably worse) by the station master and his chevre, so what should the rebbe do? Noting? He said don't use the trains!
ReplyDeleteIt's something the rebbezcheesoiyugainulaini would have condoned.
The Gerer rebbe stems from the school where the posek hadoir the Avnie Nezer came from
ReplyDeleteThe holy Avnie Nezer wrote in his famous teshuva that all the oaths are a 2 sided street and it should not be kept by jews if the gentiles did not hold it.
Not the Avnie Nezer and not the Imrie Emes need approval by some ungarisher ruv who wrote a real hyped up ungarischer sefer...
Yankel
ReplyDeleteI think the journal is positive,
to you chagrin, they admit that Chabad is anti zionist but pro israel and it is old fashion yidishkiet....
no start barking on the cars of shabos....
q about R Twersky
ReplyDeleteWasn't he Hornsteipler Rebbe?
Reb Charles
ReplyDeletethe Hornosteipler was Reb Leibele. This was a relative.
Reb Leibele also lived on Millard Ave, #1617
ReplyDeleteAnyone have any idea of how exactly they were related? Why and how were they both in Chicago at the same time?
תודה מראש
