A rare and special gathering of hidden tzaddikim at the feast of Moshe Rabbeinu, peace be upon him. The feast was attended by the Riz"l, Chacham Avraham Chai zt"l, and others, and it took place in the year 5760 at the residence of the head of the 36 tzaddikim of that time, Rabbi Yehuda Ze'ev Leibowitz zt"l.

At the feast, the esteemed Rav Shalom Arush shlit"a, head of the Chut Shel Chessed institutions, was honored to speak before the tzaddikim, and he delivered a lesson he heard from his teacher, the esteemed Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a.

"There is a direct connection between Purim and the yahrzeit of Moshe Rabbeinu. The first battle of Amalek against Israel was during the time of Moshe Rabbeinu, when the people of Israel had doubts in emunah (faith) - and Israel defeated Amalek only thanks to Moshe Rabbeinu. As it is written in the Gemara Rosh Hashanah, 'And his hands were emunah until the going down of the sun' (Shemot 17:12), Moshe would raise his hands in prayer. The heart of all Israel was drawn to the prayer and emunah of Moshe Rabbeinu, and thus they defeated Amalek - and from here, the power of emunah of the people of Israel comes directly from Moshe Rabbeinu."

"Therefore, Haman the wicked, who wanted to overcome the enemies of Israel (in a euphemistic language), saw that in Adar Moshe Rabbeinu passed away, and there was no one to stand against him, against the klipah of Amalek, the klipah of heresy."

"Rebbe Nachman of Breslov explains that on the contrary, the tzaddik who has passed has more power than when he was in this world, because despite all his kedushah (holiness), the body still limits him, but when he passes, all his greatness and splendor are revealed."

"And furthermore, Rebbe Nachman says" that Haman did not know that Mordechai and Esther are in the aspect of the tzaddik of the generation, in the aspect of Moshe Rabbeinu of the generation, "the spreading of Moshe in every generation" (Tikkun 69) that Moshe Rabbeinu is present in every generation."

"Mordechai and Esther had the power of Moshe Rabbeinu to subdue the klipah of Haman Amalek, the klipah of heresy. Moshe Rabbeinu is an acronym for 'what was is what will be', just as he redeemed us from Egypt, so he redeems us every day. For the redemption is the knowledge that a person receives, as it is written 'For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of Hashem as the waters cover the sea' (Isaiah 11:9)

- Almost all of Israel opposed Moshe Rabbeinu, constantly complained about him, blamed him for all their shortcomings, yet - they continued to believe in Moshe Rabbeinu after he passed".

"So it was with all the greatest tzaddikim - when they lived in the world, most of Israel opposed them, only after they passed, most of Israel believed in them."

"On the contrary, the spreading and knowledge of Moshe Rabbeinu only grows from day to day, everything that is renewed today and will be in the future was already included with Moshe Rabbeinu who had the entire Torah. Rebbe Nachman writes that a person in the hand of the tzaddik is like a pen in the hand of the scribe, that if he comes to innovate, he knows he is like a pen in the hand of the scribe - all the Torah from the tzaddik. The tzaddik is the brain from which all the intellect of the people of Israel flows. We are like a pen, what does the pen have to be proud of?"

After Rav Arush concluded his holy words, as he received from our teacher, the esteemed Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, the esteemed Rav Avraham Chai zt"l began to speak. These are his holy words.

"The redemption is like a wedding and like Shabbat, it requires a lot of preparation, you cannot have a wedding without a lot of preparation, we are not yet ready..."
