You Call That Learning?

This week I have three stories for you. The first is about a young scholar living in the court of the Kotzker Rebbe, and a question his father-in-law asked that took him forty years to understand. The second is about the Ohev Yisrael of Apta and what happened to him on a journey to Warsaw that nobody who honored him could have predicted. The third is about a man who was absolutely certain that Eliyahu HaNavi and Moshiach were living in his city, and what Reb Simcha Bunem of Pshis'cha said when he came to tell him the news. If you're enjoying these Chassidic stories, please take a quick moment to buy me a coffee. https://ko-fi.com/barakhullman Thank you! I deeply appreciate your support!
