Thursday, Parshas Toldos, 'B'tzeil HaKodesh' with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a

In the morning, before Shacharis, a bris was held for the newborn son of R' Leibush Kessler, at which the Rebbe served as sandek.

The Rebbe shlit"a davened Shacharis in the Heichal HaMesivta, Beirach Moshe branch. Before davening, the Rebbe put tefillin on the bar mitzvah bochurim:
The bochur Yechezkel Shraga Glantz.
The bochur Mendel Ber Wieder.
The bochur Dovid Zev Eckstein.
The bochur Shmuel Forges.
During the Torah reading, the Rebbe went to the hagbah, and after davening he delivered a shiur on a sugya in the yeshiva's shiurim. Afterwards, a lechayim was held with the bar mitzvah bochurim in his private room.

During the morning hours, the Rebbe made his weekly visit to the mehudar slaughterhouse.

In the afternoon, at around 5:10, the Rebbe davened Mincha in his holy home.

In the evening, the Rebbe shlit"a officiated at the kiddushin at the chuppah of the following mechutanim:
R' Yechiel Alter Taub - HaRav Yaakov Feldman shlit"a, at Kinor David hall.
R' Eliezer Zusia Fleischman (of Williamsburg) - R' Yoel Yitzchak Roth, at Beis Rochel Paradise hall.

Reception hours for kvitlach (kabbalas kahal) ran from about 7:45 until 12:00 at night, in his holy home on Ohel Court.

The Rebbe davened Maariv at around 10:00 and then continued receiving the public.

During the reception hours, HaGaon Rabbi Meshulam Nosson Spiegel shlit"a, Rav of Beis Medrash Tefilla L'Moshe Kalashin of Monsey, entered together with his father-in-law, HaRav Moshe Gross shlit"a of Kerestir, to receive the Rebbe's blessing in honor of the upcoming wedding of his granddaughter, mazel tov. A pleasant conversation ensued, and the Rebbe bestowed his blessing upon him.

Also entering was the HaGaon, Rav of Beis Medrash Sanz Kiryas Joel shlit"a, who brought the newly reprinted holy sefer Divrei Chaim for Chanukah. The Rebbe studied the sefer for an extended time and then engaged in a lengthy conversation about the life and times of the holy Sanzer Rebbe zy"a.

The Rebbe also tested the bochur Yosef Meir, son of HaRav R' Wolf Aharon Teller shlit"a, on Hilchos Shabbos.
