Beware! Shame on You! No One Knows What Awaits Them - The Cry of Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Salomonovich Against Those Pursuing Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a
Gevald! Gevald! How can we remain silent, there is already so much pain and anguish, so many disputes, so much sorrow, how can you conduct such a cruel war? You have claims, you have issues? Only with goodness! Only with compassion! How can you now cause such pain in the world? Stop! Stop! Stop! Woe to you from the Day of Judgment, you have claims, call the other side, in peaceful ways, this is terrible hatred, it hasn't been like this since the beginning of time. You are delaying the redemption! You want even more to go and cause the tzaddikim to stumble again, more signatures, more signatures, woe to you from the Day of Judgment, how can you take such great tzaddikim, explain! There is another side too! Explain! There are things that can be explained! There are things that can be corrected! The whole world has been crying for four years about the hatred in Breslov, such sorrow, everything was fine, our Rebbe went to conquer the world, the evil inclination awoke and wants to create hatred and division without any compassion. Thus opens Rabbi Yaakov Moshe Salomonovich his cry against those pursuing Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, those who incite innocent rabbis and torment tens of thousands anew every moment.
"You can explain everything in the world, only here you can't explain? It can be explained, it can be corrected. Aren't you afraid? To take such tzaddikim and cause them to stumble? To take such tzaddikim and instill hatred in them? There are claims, fine, bring the other side, we will explain. It's not as simple as you think. To instill such hatred in them. This is not our Rebbe." If it were not enough that Rabbi Salomonovich is one of the great influencers of Breslov in our generation, he was also previously the rabbi of Yom Tov and Leizer Cheshin, two of the greatest pursuers of the rabbi shlit"a. And he, who knows them personally better than anyone, cries out to them to stop their despicable crimes.
"Isn't the suffering each person has enough, no one is sure of what will happen to them. What is happening here? How can there be such sorrow in Breslov? Such wickedness? Four years already of such wickedness, people are crying, for four years thousands of people have had all their vitality torn from them. You want to correct a few things, let's say in the most fundamental matters, everything can be done pleasantly! Not with wickedness! There is a lot of hatred here, a lot of hatred, endless hatred. If everyone had love, they could correct everything, the first thing that brings the exile closer is the five types of Erev Rav, the first thing is those who cause disputes. Our Rebbe can advocate for everyone except those who cause disputes." People in the world are not familiar with the magnitude of the hatred these individuals stir up, who do not shy away from any scheme to tarnish the name of Rabbi Eliezer Berland in the eyes of the public. Rabbi Salomonovich, who has never expressed himself in this way towards anyone, understands the magnitude of the terrible mistake and cries out against two of his former students.
"What is this? All those who caused disputes have already regretted it, Rabbi Shechter, who was so misled in the past dispute, Rabbi Shechter, who is holy of holies and failed in the past dispute, has already asked for forgiveness, failed because of people, now you come again, more signatures, calling people and wanting to sign him again, beware!!! Shame on you!!! No one knows what awaits them, Master of the Universe, have mercy, no one is immune! Compassion, Gevald, is this our Rebbe? Is this why we came to our Rebbe? Every period to make more disputes? There were so many disputes, another dispute? People have been bleeding for four years, people are bleeding, and it doesn't stop, worse and worse, inciting the authorities too, all because of you! Gevald, if you really want to correct, a lot of good can be corrected, anyone who needs to correct is lazy, when it comes to breaking in a moment, breaking everyone loves, instead of conquering his desires, a person conquers another, it's much easier." The words of Rabbi Salomonovich are harsh and burn in the heart, to what extent our teacher the rabbi shlit"a is pursued and remains silent. We cannot yet tell even a fraction of the things known to us, to what extent they exploit the holy conduct of our teacher the rabbi, the conduct he has taken upon himself all his days - to believe and only go in the way that is directed from above. Complete nullification to the will of Hashem.
"Who knows if the redemption is not being distanced because of this terrible dispute that is all over the world, there is such a desecration of Hashem's name all over the world, I hear from all over the world such a desecration of Hashem's name about this dispute, people already say, well, even if there was what there was, let's say if there was what there was God forbid, where do they take such murder? Only in Breslov, in such murder, the evil inclination puts all its forces to place here Erev Rav to commit murder. They take such tzaddikim, sick people, and have them sign, the wicked are like the sea that cannot rest, they want to have them sign more, instead of calling the other side to say their opinion, maybe there was a mistake here, what was here, there is another side, everything can be explained, everything can be corrected, it can be corrected from now, but not to cause destruction! Because something is bothering you, you cause destruction! Aren't you afraid? Hashem is in the heavens, aren't you afraid? Let's say everyone has a point for the sake of heaven, but how many levels not for the sake of heaven are here."
Hashem seeks out the pursued! Even if a tzaddik pursues the wicked, and here what is happening, Master of the Universe, we have become a mockery to the whole world, Breslov today has become a joke to the whole world. If you rise again, then there will be power that will rise too, know that Hashem is present and He is merciful, He only looks at a good person who wants to do good, don't you hear the cries? There are thousands upon thousands connected to the rabbi all over the world and they are crying, and their cry rises to the heart of the heavens, beware! Be afraid! Fear, fear, there are people for whom this is their entire vitality, it is not simple at all. Who knows what was prepared for the people of Israel, the two hundred years of our Rebbe and Rabbi Natan are already over, what is happening here, repent, do teshuvah, they will accept you with love, there is no hatred, even if you did what you did, there is no hatred, thousands of people, tens of thousands of people are torn and broken from this story." Our teacher the rabbi shlit"a taught us only to cry out and pray, not violence and not hatred, because things need to be corrected at the root. But, unfortunately, not everyone is aware of the magnitude of the evil and hatred that has developed in these pursuers who use tools from the world of chaos in their destructive campaign. Unfortunately, too many people fall into their trap. Therefore, we saw it necessary to bring these terrible things.
Gevald, how can you do this? Is this what you learned from our Rebbe? We learned from our Rebbe only love! Only to bring close! If Hashem has mercy on us, have mercy, have mercy, I know all the claims you have, nonsense and foolishness! Everything can be corrected! Nonsense and foolishness! You know very well how to justify everything if you want. Fortunate are you and your portion if you stop now, from now on stop, everyone stop, Hashem will help that Mashiach will come and it will stop, there is much to say, I could talk all day, this is the first time I am doing such a thing, know that it is not simple at all, if you stop now there is a chance, if you stop now with all your might there is a chance that the redemption will come!"
