In middle of Kol Nidre Sanz Klozenburg Rebbe fainted

Rebbe of Sanz Klozenburg collapsed during the Yom Kippur Kol Nidre after falling ill at the Beit Midrash Boro Park in Brooklyn. Gabbaim stabilized the Rebbe, and doctors who examined him at the scene decided not to take him to the hospital. Rebbe prayed in his room where during the day Hasidim from Europe and Israel entered.

The reason, explain the Hasidim, because for the past month the Rebbe accepted followers on the occasion of the Days of Awe, the Rebbe used to say that "I find it easier to deliver wordplay and say twenty hours of Torah, than one hard Kvitel ... ". So every night when hundreds were for the last month you can understand how much he was touched, besides suffering from kidney stones, for the past month.

One of the disciples says, "Last week the Rebbe accepted audience every night from 8 pm to 4:30 am, on one night from 9:30 to 5:00 am, and continued the work of atonement, after laying tefillin for two Bar Mitzvah boys which continued until the entry of the holy day, then the Rebbe ate for the first time, and drank more water than usual because he knew he does not feel good.

On the night of the holy day the Rebbe entered the Great Hall of the Beit Midrash earlier than usual at 7:20 and after reciting the Holy Commandments confession and began reciting the Kol Nidrei sermon. "The Rebbe said that he gets everyone will assume he applied himself to all the Jews, the holy day night visible some of Israel are holy, and God forbid have anger from one to the other, that God loves every Jew. "

The Hasid continues: "Here he began talking about all Jews must be willing to sacrifice for the honor of his name blessed, holy days and night to get" actual devotion "... and is well known to God every Jew willing to sacrifice for the sake of Kiddush Hashem . Then began to say, "Hear O Israel, the Lord our God the Lord is One."

After the verses of "Palgei Mayim", he passed the Torah to Rabbi Naftali Genger who began to see something was wrong, but no one wanted to disturb and when the Rebbe continued Kol Nidre he fell to the ground. Gabbaim who were close to the Rebbe stopped him from falling.

"It should be understood," said one of the disciples, "The Beit Midrash is filled with thousands so when there is panic and do not know what happens after shouting Hatzalah and rescue members in the Beit Midrash rose on the table and announced that everyone will stay in place and not move because it can lead to danger. "

They took the rabbi out on his chair and went to his room where a Sanz Klozenburg Hasid doctor was already waiting, the Rebbe felt a bit better and asked, "What is going on here?", And said "I thank God, am safe and sound," rose from his chair, and asked to enter back into the Beit Midrash. Although the doctor explained that this situation is not simple, 'and is need of oxygen. "They gave the Rebbe a lot of oxygen, a Gentile physician who is a doctor noticed the Jewish doctor asked what the Rebbe said, by what he heard and decided not to have to enter the hospital, but be very careful all day and tomorrow with his health.

Hassidim began to recite Tehillim , after about fifteen minutes the Rebbe's gabbaim came in and announced that the Rebbe is feeling better and no one should fear, and since it is Shabbos one must be happy, to continue in prayer and with Hashem's help tomorrow morning the Rebbe will come to prayer as usual.

At night and during day the Rebbe prayed in his room with a minyan.

During the day visitors from Israel and Europe were allowed to enter the Rebbe's room. Every ten minutes another group entered to pray with the Rebbe.

Havdalah following Yom Kippur was held about half an hour after the end of the fast, and only Rabbanim and gabbaim were present.
