Rav Yechezkel Levenstein | Tzadikim Tales (BH FILMS)

[Music] There's a story that I heard from my dear RV. Story of one of the great sages of the previous generation Levenstein. I love Shalom. Levvenstein was the shivat in Europe during a time of the holocaust and everyone knew that they had to leave because the Nazis were coming. So the Rav and all of his tid fleed to Vna. It was still at that time under the control of the Litish Vim. But shortly thereafter the Nazis got closer and it was only a matter of time before Villna was going to be conquered too. There was a big Jewish community there. Leavenstein told all of his students to prepare and go within who was in charge of all the food go with him and get out of villain says I'm staying here with the ka there's Jews here they need my support I'm not leaving them but these 500 bahim these 500 students let them get out of here save their lives couldn't handle it told no if is not coming with us if Levvenstein is not coming with us all of us are staying here we can't leave you we understand you have to stay with the community so we'll stay with you. We cannot live without you. And Levstein heard this he quickly packed up and went with them. They got on trains and got all the way to China the Shangai. Once they got to Shangghai a miracle miracle happened they found a place that some rich Jew built full of books full of kesh. He built a k but it was empty. Nobody was using it. Literally he built it for this to come over there. Everyone got back to learning and stayed there for some time learning Tawa. But of course the war continued, the horrors continued and people started getting news that family and friends are dying, killed, murdered by the Nazis and the numbers were incomprehensible. A couple of bahim started questioning things. Where is Hashem? Why is he hashem allowing these Nazi to murder our brothers and sisters? Why is he allowing this to happen? Where is he hashem? Their hearts were screaming. What are they going to say? We have to speak to the we have to speak to Levvenstein. He is the pillar of amuna. He's going to tell us why is Hashem doing this. So they decided to grab the courage and go ask the Rav the question. A very serious amuna question, a time of crisis, a time of failure, a time of misery. I need to know why. The two students started walking to the RV's office and as they got closer, they started hearing the RV speak. He's speaking to somebody. He has somebody in his office who can't go in, but they peaked in and they saw there's nobody else in the office. And then they hear closer the RV speaking and crying. And he says, "It's me. I know that I'm not some big sadik or anything, but I'm also not the biggest. So I wanted to know why. Why did you pick everyone from the Jewish community over me? What is so much better about the Jews in the community that you allowed them to die on kushem to sanctify your name but I was not welcome to die on kadushem? What sin have I made that made me an unacceptable sacrifice to your honor? Why did force me to come and not die on kadushem? Just like all the others cries to because he did not get the gift of dying on kadushem. Those two got their answer. They realized hashem doesn't think like us. Sometimes we think failure is detrimental. But in hashem's great plan that's the success. That's his will. He made you not have money. That's his will. He made you cry in the middle of the night because of some miserable thing that you're dealing with. That's his will. He made you more kind to people as a result of all the horrible things that happened to you. That's his will. He made you suffer pain after pain. That's his will. You are serving with the way that you are. Whether you think it's a loss or profit is irrelevant. If you want to serve in the beta mikdash of you have to serve him with the tools that he gives you. If he gives you a half a body, serve him with a half a body. He gives you no children, serve him with no children. He gives you many children, serve him with every child. He gives you extraordinary wisdom, serve him with the entire wisdom you have. If he makes you a fool, serve him with your foolishness. He gives you a voice, serve him with your voice. Why? That's the will of Don't ask questions about of why he did this and why he did that. Find a way. Find a way to get that out of your heart that's trying to make you impure because you're already in the beta mikdash. If you're watching this still from the beginning until now, that means you are already in the beta mikdash. You're already in there. You're about to bring the sacrifice. Don't let that difficulty don't let that thing that the Satan calls failure into your heart because if au gave it to you that means that's his will which translates to that's the success that you need to deal with right now what success I'm in pain what success I'm losing what success I don't have what success I am this yes that's the success that's the tool if we serve to full capacity with the tool tools he gives us that we serve our purpose. May it be his will that he gives each and every single one of us better and better tools that are not only great in his eyes but also great in ours. May we succeed in serving him and doing his will with a smile and don't let any tear be wasted on sorrow because the only thing that we should be sorry about is that we're not serving him enough. Everything else is the this was the things that I learned and taught and I think it's going to help a lot of people if they take this into their own perspective their own lives internalize them apply them because difficulty is something we all deal with even if we are doing cha and think that we're serving Hashem there's more work to Abuay Kharim. I'd like to introduce you to the new Kiru box. But unlike the other, this one does not require much packaging. In fact, it doesn't require anything by you. All you got to do is open it and it has a bunch of our best absolute best films, music, shulim, lots of stuff that is pleasing to the eye. You can hear it. And in so many words, Abu Thai, the dead would be awoken just to watch it. If you really want to do kiru, you're going to get this for as many people as possible. You don't need to convince anymore. You don't have to do anything anymore. We literally did everything for you. All you got to do is get one of this and simply tell to a person, listen, I love you. Here's a gift. What is it? It doesn't require an explanation. In fact, it doesn't require internet. It doesn't require technical knowledge. All it requires is some ability to simply open it. That's it. After that, it turns out by itself. You want to invest into getting bala. There is simply no tool on planet earth that will be more convincing than this. Because this raatai is 10 years of work in a way that's so beautiful that doesn't matter whether the person is secular, religious, young, old, everyone would be interested in this. Don't be surprised if other people are going to try to copy it, but what they can't copy is the last 10 years of work that they won't be able to copy. uh anyone that wants to be a partner, anyone that wants to support uh this project or to help us with feeding the poor in Israel that have lost their home during the uh recent attacks, you could donate on the website, you could donate on our campaign page, you could donate on the Facebook campaign.
