25 Years Waiting for a Child and Then the Miracle Happened - Very Inspiring from 'Radio Kol Berama'

The Gabbai Rabbi Barak Barber live on 'Kol Berama' radio, about the salvation - the birth of the son after 25 years.

Rav Berland shlit"a told me that "he entered prison to work for my salvation," and indeed I was saved!

The full interview

"Good week, Barak"

"Good and blessed week"

"Tell us about your miracles and wonders with the grace of Hashem for the wonderful things, share with us, the people of Israel, to say thank you very much to Hashem."

"Baruch Hashem, blessed be His name forever, first a thousand times thank you very much to Hashem, how many Psalms of thanks we have said."

"Many people prayed for us for 25 years, I met people every day who told me: we did Psalms for you, and prayers and Hitbodedut - what not. Many people prayed for us for 25 years, I met people every day who told me: we did Psalms for you, and prayers and Hitbodedut - what not."

"Now I identify with all the people, that I was on the other side without children. How many disappointments and expectations, how many prayers and how you already despair. There is no segulah we didn't do, and no place we didn't go, how many commitments, what didn't we do! But, Baruch Hashem - in the end, we see that there is no despair in the world at all!"

"As much as a person insists, Baruch Hashem we also adopted a child, such a tzaddik that I'm sure he opened this whole path for us."

"Where do you live, Barak?"

"I live in Holon."

"How old is the child you adopted?"

"He was 10, now he is 14 and a half."

"Four and a half years did their work with the grace of Hashem, with the prayers.., and here you are publicizing the wonderful miracle."

"Do you know what to attribute the miracle to, of course the prayers?"

"Look, I'll tell you, there were many who prayed for us, Baruch Hashem, we also went through a year and a half that were not easy due to various sufferings we went through, I am sure it is also thanks to the child, and also every Shabbat I made sure to sing 'Zera Chaya Vekayama'. Those who know in the Sephardic prayer version it appears, and every Shabbat we would sing it."

"About a year and a half to two years ago, Rabbi Eliezer Berland told me: 'I see there is nothing more to do, I must go, in half a year I will enter prison and thanks to this you will have real children, there were many things until they cannot be counted: how many commitments we made to charity and meals at the graves of tzaddikim, how many treatments."

"We named him Yosef Binyamin after Yosef the tzaddik to whom we are very connected, because my brother was injured in an attack there, and Binyamin is my father's name and we intended for Binyamin the tzaddik. Both are the sons of Rachel our mother to whom my wife lit a constant candle throughout the pregnancy, and thanks to this she had a really easy pregnancy, many prayed for us at Rachel our mother's, this is truly a child of the people of Israel."

"May it be fulfilled in you: May Hashem add for you another son."

"Amen, everyone who needs, everyone who prays should know there is no such thing as despair, even though I was told several times, the doctors said there is no chance you will have a child, and they only discourage, all the time they try to discourage, but Baruch Hashem it was."

"A young man came to the Steipler zt"l for 5 years and the Steipler told him to return to him, finally he told him, Rabbi, already 7 years I am praying, should I continue to pray?"

"He answered him, there is a prayer that is answered after a year or two, there are those after 10 years, there are prayers that are answered after 15 years, he said so and did not add. The young man continued to pray, after exactly 15 years a son was born to him and he understood retrospectively the words of the Steipler, and you held on for 25 years, your sign is 'Ko' - .Ko you shall bless the children of Israel, as you say, a child of the people of Israel."

"We rejoice in your joy and thank Asaf Shefer for sharing with us this great and wonderful miracle, Barak Barber, many congratulations and may you raise him with much nachat, Amen, so may it be His will."

"I wish everyone, to everyone who needs, that this year, thanks to this baby, will open for everyone, and everyone will be remembered, and healed, and find their matches with Hashem's help."

"Amen."

"May Hashem protect you, good week."
