Baruch Dayan HaEmes (Blessed is the True Judge): Breslov Chassidus and the Shuvu Banim community, in the Land of Israel and the Diaspora, are wrapped in heavy mourning, in grief and in sorrow, with the announcement of the bitterest news of all regarding the passing of this holy Chassid, the Gaon and Tzaddik,

The holy Rabbi Moshe Tzanani zt"l (of blessed and holy memory)

The greatest of the students of our teacher and master,
The Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a (may he be distinguished for a long and good life)

Who ascended to Heaven in a whirlwind and was summoned to the Heavenly Academy during the time of Rava d'Ravin (the most auspicious time of the Sabbath afternoon) on the Holy Sabbath of Parshas Shemos.

The Ashkavta d'Rebbi (funeral procession) will depart tonight, the conclusion of the Holy Sabbath of Parshas Shemos, the eve of the 22nd of Teves, at 11:00 PM from the "Shamgar" funeral home in Jerusalem toward the home of his primary teacher on HaChoma HaShlishis Street, until the Breslov section on Har HaZeisim (the Mount of Olives).
