Rabbi Chaim Goldring: Awakening Regarding the Honor of the Tzaddik's Study Hall

The esteemed Rabbi Chaim Zanvil Goldring shlit"a from Beit Shemesh joins the struggle against the pursuers of the honorable Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a.
Rabbi Chaim Goldring adds a vigorous protest against those causing troubles for Israel.
Following the list of rabbis and tzaddikim shlit"a who understood, like tens of thousands in Israel, that the persecution of Rav Berland brought upon us the terrible disaster of the pandemic and its consequences, Rabbi Goldring also joins with his vigorous protest.
These are his harsh words directed specifically at the pursuers of Rav Berland shlit"a and the thousands of members of the Shuvu Banim community.
"We must be at peace with one another in the synagogue - and not throw anyone out, as is done in many Breslov synagogues where people are thrown out and the synagogue is closed."
"In the Song of Songs it is written: 'I am a wall, and my breasts like towers; then was I in his eyes as one that found peace.' Rashi says: I am a wall, I am strong in the love of my beloved, I am strong, I love Hashem."
"'And my breasts like towers,' these are synagogues and study halls that nourish Israel with words of Torah. If we have words of Torah there, and do not close it to a friend, and do not run to courts - and have not yet returned in teshuvah - for having thrown many Jews out of the synagogue, then was I in his eyes as one that found peace - then, we have a synagogue to pray and learn. Not for closing and installing cameras, then was I in his eyes as one that found peace."
"Rashi says, like a bride who is complete if she finds peace in her husband's home. If we had not closed all the Breslov synagogues, if we had not caused disputes there. And we had not opened another gathering in Uman, and slandered the other gathering - then we would be like a bride living in peace in her husband's home."
"From here we see that they leave one another and do not find what the real problem is - we closed the synagogue, slandered the other's synagogue, now we need to return in teshuvah and not speak."
"Then remove from the prayer the blessing: and for the slanderers, "but our sages instituted to say three times a day in prayer the blessing: 'and for the slanderers'. We must strengthen and believe that all the words of our sages are truth and justice even for future generations."
"Everything depends on the purpose of the synagogue - not to fight in court or the beit din over who the synagogue belongs to, amen and amen. And not to be strict about who does and who does not speak, and if the other tells stories not to call him Shabtai, because synagogues were not made for quarrels, then we will be like a bride who finds peace in her husband's home - then there will be peace."
Very interesting that they preach to me morality, but I did not throw anyone out of the synagogue."
