In this week’s Living Torah, JEM presents a fascinating clip where we get to see the sacrifice of Chasidim in Russia, and the Rebbe’s hands on involvement and direction, with first person testimony and footage smuggled out under the noses of the Soviets.
VIDEO:
The tall woman is Mrs. Katzman. The elderly chosid on the right is her father Rav Chaikel Chanin OBM. The older woman on the left may be her mother.
How could it have been Nitel Nacht 5737?? isnt that a bit too late?
who’s with the Rebbe at 2:03?
I recall when R Berl Levy showed a video of Yidden in the Soviet Union of chassidim asking the Rebbe for a brocho not in Gashmius things but for them to daven better.There wasnt a dry eye at the melava malka. Extreemly powerful
I believe this is the video which the Rebbe sat down to watch of chassidic undercover life in the Soviet Union filmed by Rabbi Berel Levy OBM, on Nittel Nacht 5737. The Rebbe recommended that bochurim watch it as well.
