(to #1, There were many children there )
I too noticed the little boy on the table wearing a white sweater. It is a nice shot and you captured the scene by contrasting his white agaians the mostly black of everyone else around him.

you people are so pathetic!

i must say that i think most of the people who commented negatively here are either young, immature teenagers who don’t have a mind of their own, and are just repeating all the negative comments they hear at home or in school, or they might be adults, who don’t care. adults who are perfectly fine living in this golus, living the life, and couldn’t care less if moshiach’s not here yet, or the rebbe’s not in 770 with us anymore. i think it’s time for everyone to grow up, and have some sort of achdus! it’s not easy for all… Read more »

i’m trying to imagine 20 or more years ago during a serious farbraingen smack in middle of the rebbe saying a maamor the fire department comes in and kicks everyoone out!

please tell me your not serious…

That was a story that was once – it is called lefi shaah – not make a religeon out of it. Oh please – how badly have they warped your thinking – this is just a plain cult no more no less – singing and praying to a chair three times a day

STOP FIGHTING AND ARGUING.
Are you a sick person that cant extend your hand out for those who come from afar to spend Tishrei with the Rebbe?

kudos #13
September 21, 2009 12:10 pm

I would like to add, although I myself cant stand the pushing…this is 770 after all. Tishrei in 770! Its been like this for the past 60+ years…what is up with all the synosizm??? If you dont like it, dont come-why all the bashing especially during aseres yemai teshuva??

thank you 13!

Proud to be a Lubavitcher
September 21, 2009 11:28 am

Is this a lubavitcher site?! What an absolute privilege to be in the Rebbe’s shul, bais rabeinu she’bebavel. the Rebbe’s koach can uplift us all, even with the crowded, packed situation there. I am so proud that my children had the zechus to be there, even for just a short while. Unless you’re on shlichus, I have only rachmanus for you if you missed this zechus. A happy and sweet year to you all!

evryone is looking at the rebbes chair based on freideker rebbes letter , page number 391-392 second to last paragraph “…And at the head of the table stood a chair – empty that no one would touch – this chair, the place prepared for my grandfather the Rebbe Maharash….after they read the tenaim they put it at the head of the table (at the rebbe mahrashes place) ….I will never forget that moment and the scene when my father told the story, he stood up, and with his two hands held the table, and looked for a long time at… Read more »

whats everyone looking at???????????????

To #1
September 21, 2009 9:00 am

I was thinking the same thing. It’s all bochurim. But #3 is right – it’s sad but my husband stays far away from the mishugas in 770 all year & especially Tishrei. I don’t want my kids getting trampled.

fire department
September 21, 2009 7:55 am

Next time 770 is this grossly over packed — meaning, anytime between now and Cheshvan — someone should call the fire department. Regardless of beliefs, this is just dangerous… def. over the maximum occupancy capacity (plus, may be a nice way to clear out the place).

September 21, 2009 12:57 am

Um to Mr #1 – The Elite From Crown Heights…I was their and standing next to Avraham Fried and his kids…is he not from anash!

shame
September 21, 2009 12:52 am

shame on collive for premoting the mishichistim

my take
September 21, 2009 12:06 am

its more like most anash don’t want anything to do with all of these folks and definately don’t want their kids to see such things…

Where were the yungerleit
September 20, 2009 11:51 pm

you dont sound like you were there it was packed wall to wall with bouchrim, yungerleit, zignei anash, etc. come and see!

Where are the Yungeleit
September 20, 2009 11:26 pm

Lok at the pictures. There is hardly a Yungerman in the picture!(besides Barrel & Avremel) It is sad to see how they have chased away Anash from 770!!
