Rebbe of Dushinsky Leads Holy Day Gathering with Young Followers

By כיכר השבת, חיים רוזנבוים
Translated & summarized from Kikar HaShabbat by baba
The story · English

Following the conclusion of the holy day, Rabbi Dushinsky, the Rebbe of Dushinsky Hasidism, held his traditional "tish" (gathering) in his large study hall in Jerusalem. The event, which took place before the Rebbe changed from his white garments worn for the day's services, was marked by a particularly moving sight: young children of the Hasidic community sat captivated behind the Rebbe.

Photographs from the tish captured this scene, with the children's presence creating an atmosphere so striking that it momentarily resembled "sukkah decorations" adorning the study hall.
