1500 Attended Join Yud Tes Kislev Farbrengen with Rabbi Ginzburgh

On Tuesday night, a “Simcha B’Taharata” gathering was held with Rabbi Yitzchak Ginzburgh Shlit”a, in honor of Rosh Hashanah for Chassidus, “Chag Hachgaim”, yud tes Kislev.

According to the tradition of yud tes kislev, nigunim of the Baal HaSimcha were played, culminating in the nigun Dalet bavos which is reserved for playing only at special times.

The gathering was attended by about 1,500 men and women from all over the country and from all walks of life. Lithuanian, Hasidim, yeshiva students, university students, ulpana girls, chabad girls, and even students from a mixed seminary in the distant Golan Heights. All came to hear the rabbi’s four hours of deep lessons. There was a noticeable presence of readers of the “Niflaot” weekly booklets, which contains the rabbi’s lessons, many of whom being their first live encounter with Rabbi Ginzburgh.

“I do not understand a lot of things,” one of the young participants said, a student from a mixed seminary, “but things go straight to the soul, and I feel it strongly.”

The organizers of the event had been hoping that after a long break of such events, this would be the opening for another series of such live events.
