"The War-Time Saga of an Orphaned Fur-Sewer"

He traveled to the [2nd] Shtefanesht Rebbe of Shtefanesht with a group of other chasidic boys who also had recently received an order to join the Romanian army.

LAST week's Story

"The Infamous Circle of Blood"

Do not underestimate the power of a Kabbalist, especially one of the caliber of Rabbi Yehuda Fetayah zt'l

Why This Week? R. Yehudah Petayah knew how to test a person to see if he was deluded and imagining things that are not true or really was having an other-worldly experience." Chapter 13 in this week's Torah reading, Re'eh, is mostly about how to deal with false prophets and missionaries.
