Wednesday, Parshas Tetzaveh, 'B'tzeil HaKodesh' with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a

The Rebbe davened Shacharis in Heichal HaMesivta, Yoel Moshe branch. Before davening, the Rebbe put tefillin on the bar mitzvah bochurim.
- The son of HaGaon Rabbi Shlomo Hersh Eckstein shlit"a - moreh tzedek.
- The bochur Moshe Elimelech Tzvi Weider.
- The bochur Binyomin Schwartz.

After davening, the Rebbe delivered the daily Tehillim shiur on chapter 24, verse 7, and spoke words of hashkafa regarding the impurity of Zionism, discussing the history of the Zionist Organization - the worldwide Zionist congress - and the battle that all the rabbonim of all strata and circles waged against it, and the universal simple understanding of every person until recent years not to join it. He expressed his pain that today the Agudas Yisroel circles already have members in the congress, which means that everyone who registers for it must sign that he will take part in the plague of Zionism with body and money, Rachmana litzlan. He concluded with a plea to all of Klal Yisroel that everyone who has within him a spark of fear of Heaven should not, Chas v'shalom, join the association with wicked people of the worst kind, "Tamei, tamei yikra," and may it be His will that the erring ones learn understanding.

Afterward, a lechayim was held with the bar mitzvah bochurim in the Rebbe's private room. The Rebbe also distributed coins to the bochurim who distinguished themselves with extended hours of learning during the Yemei HaShovavim, may they return in good health.

After Shacharis, at around 12:30, the Rebbe went to visit the gravesites of the Rebbes zy"a today after Shacharis, for the refuah of his brother-in-law the Vizhnitz Rebbe, Rabbi Yisroel ben Leah Esther shlit"a, for a speedy recovery.
Upon arriving at the cemetery, the Rebbe recited the blessing, lit 5 candles at the grave of our holy Rebbes, the Divrei Yoel and the Beirach Moshe zy"a, recited the fourth book of Tehillim and said Kaddish. Then the Rebbe read a kvitel with the name and davened a silent prayer for a short while. They finished at around 12:55.

In the afternoon, the Rebbe went up to Heichal HaYeshiva, Beirach Moshe branch, where the Rebbe learned with a chavrusa from among the yeshiva's talmidim in his private room. At around 6:00 the Rebbe davened Mincha in the yeshiva.

In the evening, the Rebbe officiated at kiddushin at the chuppahs of the mechutanim:

- R' Asher Zelig Yonason Bleich - R' Shimon Schwartz, in the halls of Beis Rochel Paradise.

After the chuppahs, at around 8:10, the Rebbe went over to the shopping center halls for the Sheva Brachos celebration arranged by HaGaon HaGadol, the Av Beis Din shlit"a, on the occasion of the marriage of his grandson, mazel tov, the chosson, the son of his son Rabbi Shlomo shlit"a, to the kallah, daughter of HaGaon Rabbi Yaakov Weiss shlit"a, one of the rabbonim of our holy kehilla in Monsey. A fine conversation ensued regarding matters of marriage and various customs concerning Shabbos Zachor.
