Tuesday, Parshas Lech Lecha — 'B'tzeil HaKodesh' with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a

In the morning, before Shacharis, a bris took place for a newborn son of R' Yaakov Yosha Appel, where the Rebbe served as sandek and mohel.

The Rebbe shlit"a davened Shacharis in the Heichal of Yeshiva Gedolah, Shiur Dalet. After davening, a lechayim gathering was held in honor of the start of the zman. The Rebbe drank lechayim and blessed the roshei yeshiva, the administration and all the talmidim.

In the afternoon, the Rebbe shlit"a went up to the Heichal of the Divrei Yoel branch of the yeshiva, where the Rebbe learned with a chavrusa from among the talmidim of the yeshiva in his private room. At around 6:00 the Rebbe davened Mincha in the yeshiva.

In the evening, the Rebbe shlit"a traveled to Williamsburg for the weekly yechidus hours.
The yechidus hours, in his beautiful home on Hooper St., ran from around 8:20 until 10:15 at night.

After the yechidus hours, the Rebbe shlit"a traveled over to Boro Park to the tenaim celebration of his grandson, the chasan HaRav Yisroel Dushinsky shlit"a, son of the son-in-law of HaGaon Rabbi, the Rav of Beis HaMedrash Ohel Feiga shlit"a, son of the Dushinsky Rebbe shlit"a. The kallah is the daughter of HaRav R' Avrohom Yosha Eiger shlit"a (of Boro Park), son of HaRav R' Azriel Meir shlit"a of Lublin, and granddaughter of HaGaon R' Efraim Stein shlit"a of Faltichan. It took place in the Sphinka hall in Boro Park.
The Rebbe arrived at around 10:50 and greeted the grandfathers and rabbonim. The mechutanim shlit"a stood up, the Rebbe arranged the tenaim, and honored the grandfather, HaGaon Av Beis Din of Lublin shlit"a, with reading the tenaim. The witnesses to the tenaim were: R' Alexander Nuchem Gottlieb and R' Aharon Meir Friedman; the guarantor on the chasan's side: R' Nachman Fish; the guarantor on the kallah's side: R' Yechiel Aizik Weinstock.
The Rebbe drank lechayim and blessed the chasan, the mechutanim and the entire gathering. He delivered words of Torah on the topic of the simcha of a chasan and kallah, enumerated the great yichus and the connection of his father, the Rebbe, zy"a, to the kallah's grandfather, HaGaon Av Beis Din of Faltichan zt"l, and concluded with abundant blessings.

Joyous melodies were sung and the assembled came over to wish the Rebbe shlit"a mazel tov. The event ended at around 11:30. On the way out, the Rebbe blessed the kallah as is customary.

From there the Rebbe went over to our great beis medrash, where the Rebbe davened Maariv, and after Maariv, at around 12:00, the Rebbe set out for home, to his beautiful residence in Kiryas Joel.
