Sunday, Divrei Torah 'B'tzeil HaKodesh' with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a, at the resort town of Bethlehem, New Hampshire

The Rebbe entered for Shacharis davening at around 9:00.
- Baal tefillah: the Rav R' Yissachar Berish, son of R' Chaim Yaakov Herskowitz shlit"a (Kiryas Joel).

After davening, the many guests who had chosen to spend Shabbos B'tzeil HaKodesh came over to bid farewell. The Rebbe walked home to his lodging, and on the way a conversation developed about the holy Yismach Moshe zy"a.

On the way to Mincha, the talmidim of Yeshiva Gedolah Shiur Daled waited and greeted the Rebbe, together with the roshei yeshiva HaGaon R' Aryeh Dov Kornbluh shlit"a and HaGaon R' Yitzchak Yaakov Rosenfeld shlit"a.
The Rebbe entered for Mincha davening at around 9:00. Baal tefillah: the Rav Yosef, son of Moshe Simon (Kiryas Joel). Between Mincha and Maariv, the Rebbe was engaged in his learning.
Before learning, the Rebbe lit a neshama candle in honor of the holy hilula of his ancestor, the holy Baal Yismach Moshe zy"a. At the time of Rabbeinu Tam, around 9:40, Maariv was davened. The Rebbe lit candles and approached the amud in honor of the yahrzeit.

After Maariv, at around 10:00, the Rebbe washed for the seudas hilula and honored his pure table together with the talmidim of Yeshiva Gedolah Shiur Daled. Before the fish, HaGaon R' Yitzchak Yaakov Rosenfeld shlit"a made a siyum on Maseches Shabbos and recited Kaddish. At the lechayim after the fish, the Rebbe wished, 'May his merit protect us.'
During the seudah, songs of galus and geulah were sung, and the Rebbe honored HaGaon R' Aryeh Dov Kornbluh shlit"a with the Michtam L'Dovid.

The Rebbe delivered words of Torah from the teachings of the baal hilula, and brought out that from the churban of the Beis HaMikdash we see that only because there was already kedusha from the first and second Batei Mikdash can the third Beis HaMikdash descend, built and complete. From this, every Jew should draw chizuk: even if he has, chas v'shalom, sinned, there is still within him an impression of holiness from the mitzvos he has done, and through this he still has a hope of recovery and can still do teshuva. The Rebbe concluded with words of chizuk and abundant brachos.
They continued with songs, and during this HaGaon R' Aryeh Dov shlit"a presented the Rebbe shlit"a with a collective kvitel from the talmidim of the yeshiva.
The Rebbe bentched on the cup, and after bentching the Rebbe distributed the kos shel bracha to all the bochurim. It ended at around 11:10.
