FIRST EDITION. Edited by Menachem Aaron Leibovitch. Issued by Chevrath Tiphereth Bachurim.

Text of a seemingly tragic sermon delivered immediately prior to the escape of the Grand Rabbi of Belz from Hungary, to the safety of Palestine. Within the sermon (pp. 18-19) the Rebbe assures his followers that Hungarian Jewry will remain safe from the horrors that had befallen the Jews elsewhere in Europe. Of course within months almost a half-million Hungarian Jews were savagely murdered by the Germans via massive deportations to Auschwitz.
