Amazing: Singing, Dancing, and a Torah Lesson in Heavy Snow — “My G-d, My G-d
Why Have You Forsaken Me” — the holy tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, 25 Shevat 5782

As Jerusalem turned white all around, and the snowflakes above did not cease to fall - the prayer courtyard of our teacher, the Gaon and Tzaddik, Rav Eliezer Berland shlit"a, on Ido HaNavi Street, burned with flames of fire.
Immediately after the Ma'ariv prayer, in the melody of the tzaddik, our teacher Rav Berland shlit"a began to sing with the congregation for long minutes:
"And Esther spoke yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears" (Esther 8:3).
"My G-d, my G-d, why have You forsaken me?" (Psalms 22).
And immediately upon finishing the singing, our teacher the Rav shlit"a continued and said:
"So what did Ahasuerus say to her?.., 'Forgive me, you are very important and dear to me, but what can I do?'"
"'And it is sealed with the king's ring, it cannot be revoked'—whoever is sealed by the tzaddik, then it is finished; this is an eternal seal and it cannot be revoked!"
"Now we are all traveling to Uman; there are already planes ready, within 5 minutes everyone will be inside the planes."
