19 Kislev 5720

19 Kislev 5720 (probaly a different version) The story is told about when the Baal Hageulah V’hasimcha, the Alter Rebbe, went to be interrogated by the government, in the place where people would be taken afraid for their lives, so that they could decide if he is going to be killed or be given a different punishment. He went in with his Tefillin on - as the story is told by my father-in-law, the Rebbe, - to this interrogation room, inside were the people that would interrogate him. When he entered, the people that were sitting were not able to stand up, and the ones that were standing were not able to sit down, due to the fear that fell upon them when they gazed at the Alter Rebbe. Later, when the Alter Rebbe was asked to explain why he this happened, he answered, “it says clearly in the Possuk about Tefillin Shel Rosh ‘And all the nations of the world will see that the name of Hashem is upon you,’ –and therefore – ‘they will be afraid of you!’” (Maaseh Rav Tape #5 Side 2 the fifth Sicha)
