Motzei Shabbos, the Night of the 3rd Day of Chanukah — 'B'tzeil HaKodesh' with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a

At around 10:25 the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a entered the main beis medrash for the Chanukah candle lighting, in the presence of a large crowd, in the majesty of a king. The Rebbe poured in the oil and recited the blessings over the lighting.
Afterwards the Rebbe recited the zemiros, inspiring melodies were sung, and the choir sang the piyutim as is customary.
Among those present were the Spinka Beis Yitzchak Rebbe shlit"a, the Zidichov Chadarim Rebbe shlit"a, and HaGaon Rabbi, the Av Beis Din of Wojslaw shlit"a.
After the zemiros the Rebbe distributed coins to the singers and to the children of the choir.

Afterwards the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a delivered a holy discourse of Torah thoughts and pilpul on the sugya in Maseches Shabbos regarding "kibsah zakuk lah" (when it is extinguished, one is still obligated regarding it). He then continued in the manner of aggadah, explaining that the Chanukah light brings down parnassah, and concluded with his holy blessings.
After the discourse, singing of niggunim continued. The Rebbe drank a lechayim and wished blessings: "A good week and a bright Chanukah." It concluded at around 11:35.

On the way home to his holy residence in Kiryas Joel, the Rebbe stopped in Monsey, where the Rebbe comforted the mourner, R' Moshe Taback, on the loss of his wife a"h.
