The Rav Told Me: 'You Will Be Released Much Sooner Than You Think' - Miracles of the Righteous Rav Eliezer Berland shlit"a

A Jew who performed a Pidyon Nefesh for the esteemed righteous Rav Eliezer Berland shlit"a experienced a great miracle. "We did a Pidyon, and Rav Berland shlit"a told me that I would be released much sooner than I think. Well, although the Rav strengthened me, naturally there is nothing to do since I am sentenced for a long period. Nevertheless, I was strengthened, believing in the Rav."

"I was in solitary confinement, a room without a window and without people. I spoke with Rav Berland on the phone, and he told me he would come to visit me. After I hung up, I remembered that I forgot to tell the Rav that it's impossible to visit without special permits, as it's solitary confinement. I left it and went to sleep. At night, the Rav came to me in a dream into the solitary room. It was a dream, but it seemed just like reality. The Rav spoke to me and also blessed me."

"It's been a period of seven years that I've been in prison. I spoke with Rav Berland, who blessed me. He also told me a few things, and suddenly the penny dropped. I called the lawyer and told him that they need to check the cameras from the incident that happened to me once. I think we might be able to find something there."

"Indeed, Hashem helped, and we found additional footage from the cameras, and with this, they reduced my sentence by four whole years, exactly as the Rav said. Thank you very much to the Rav shlit"a, and may Hashem bless him."
