A touching moment of prayer by a Hasidic Jewish man at Rabbi Hershele Liska’s grave gathers a large audience.
In the peaceful quiet of Liska's Jewish cemetery, a Hasidic Jewish man offers a heartfelt prayer at the gravesite of Hershel Lisker, also known as Tzvi Hersh Friedman. In a moment of profound faith, he asks for the miracle of love, hope, and healing to embrace the Hasidic community.
The man, in the grace of prayer, bends humbly before the old tombstone, as if holding both history and the present in his heart. The sacred tomb of Rav Hershel Lisker, Tzvi Hersh Friedman, in Liska Jewish Cemetery serves as a gateway to the Eternal, where Hasidic prayers rise and unite in faith.This sacred location draws thousands of Hasidic Jewish visitors, who feel the presence of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman guiding their prayers for hope and faith. Requests, wishes, blessings. Words in pray are not just sounds, but emotions and desires that come from the heart and reach Him.
Orthodox Jewish communities center their prayers around asking for blessings that protect childhood innocence and provide healing for the sick. As a custodian of faith and heritage, the cemetery merges the respect of bygone eras with the contemporary prayers of its visitors.
The Kerestir Rebbe, Yeshaya Steiner, would visit this sacred place periodically to pray and ask for blessings at the grave of his great teacher, Hershel Lisker. The guidance of his teacher was instrumental in helping the Kerestir Rebbe's community cling to their traditions and persevere in faith during difficult moments.
During this sacred time, the resonance of the man’s words reflects a deep connection across time, as the prayer carries the community’s innermost hopes and wishes for the future.
