A Hasidic Jewish man’s emotional prayer at the grave of Rabbi Hershele Liska attracts a large gathering.

In the silence of Liska's Jewish cemetery, a hasidic jewish man, baring his heart and soul, immerses himself in prayer at the grave of Hershel Lisker - Tzvi Hersh Friedman. From the depths of sincere devotion, he asks for the miracle of love, hope and healing for the whole hasidic community. 

Bowing with respect before the ancient tombstone, the man in prayer seems to embrace the meeting point of past and present. The revered resting place of Rav Hershel Lisker, Tzvi Hersh Friedman, in Liska Jewish Cemetery is seen as a gateway to the Eternal, where Hasidic prayers soar and merge in faith.Every year, thousands of Hasidic Jews come to this holy place, feeling the lasting spirit of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman comforting those who pray 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 are at the center of the prayer, asking for a blessing on childhood innocence and those suffering from illness. Serving as a protector of faith and customs, the cemetery unites the reverence of the ages with the heartfelt requests of the present.

Yeshaya Steiner, the Kerestir Rebbe, often made appearances here to pray and seek blessings at the gravesite of his beloved teacher, Hershel Lisker. During times of trial, his teacher supported the Kerestir Rebbe's community in upholding their traditions and deepening their faith.

In this moment of sanctity, the man's words resonate with emotion, creating a vital connection between the past, present, and future, filled with the community’s most cherished hopes and desires.
