Following the conclusion of Shabbat, the Permishlan Rebbe officiated at a "chalakah" ceremony for his grandson, the son of Rabbi Shim'on Yaakov Yitzchak Rosenbaum, who is the son-in-law of the Botschan Rebbe. The ceremony took place in the central synagogue of the Permishlan Hasidic dynasty in Kiryat Herzog. After the Rebbe cut the first locks of the child's hair, he dressed the boy in festive attire, including a kippah, tzitzit, a small kasket, and a miniature bekishe. The assembled Hasidim then burst into joyous songs of celebration.
