Rabbi Yehuda Deri Would Encourage Anyone Who Would Become Chasid Breslov Shuvu Banim – Rav Berland Shlit”a in Words of Eulogy

"THE ANGELS HAVE VANQUISHED THE RIGHTEOUS ONES, AND THE ARK OF GOD IS CAPTURED" - ON TUESDAY NIGHT, THE 3RD OF TAMMUZ 5784, THE GREAT GAON RABBI YEHUDA DERI ZTVK”L, CHIEF RABBI OF BEER SHEVA AND MEMBER OF THE CHIEF RABBINATE COUNCIL OF ISRAEL, SUDDENLY PASSED AWAY. AT THE TIME OF HIS FUNERAL, MOREINU HARAV ELIEZER BERLAND SHLIT”A, DELIVERED A EULOGY IN HIS SHIUR AFTER MA’ARIV. THESE ARE HIS HOLY WORDS FROM THE EULOGY: "Now is the funeral of Rabbi Yehuda Deri zt”l, brother of Aryeh Deri and son-in-law of Rabbi Yitzchak Toledano zt”l.  Rabbi Yehuda zt”l would support Shuvu Banim [https://ravberland.com/words-of-chizzuk-which-rabbi-yehuda-deri-ztl-gave-at-the-protest-tent-in-beer-sheva-in-praise-of-rav-berland-shlita/] with heart and soul. He was the Chief Rabbi of Beer Sheva and merited to ascend in a storm wind on Yaakov's ladder to the heavens. Because if Yaakov had ascended on the ladder, then no nation or language could have ruled over us. Now Rabbi Deri has merited to ascend on the ladder, so no nation or language will be able to rule over Am Yisrael—he protected Am Yisrael in all his prayers. I was detained in Beer Sheva from the 15th of Tammuz until the 15th of Av. On the 13th of Tammuz, I landed. On the 15th of Tammuz, they transferred me to Beer Sheva until the 15th of Av, and on the 15th of Av, I moved to Tzalmon. After this, before Hanukkah, we moved to Ramla Prison, to the prison medical center, and he arranged for me to have a 12-star hotel. He arranged for me to have all the conditions there, the best food. Like Rivka, who had a jug [KaD in Hebrew, whose numerical value is 24] of 24 digits; 24 digits exactly equals 72 zeros [Moreinu HaRav Berland shlit”a calculates the zeros in the jug in the eulogy], because if we now go and read the Rashi, everyone asks about this Rashi, some Yoav, some general, do I know? Moshe Dayan abandoned all Am Yisrael [in the Yom Kippur War], 2,222 killed for nothing. Now I read that Kissinger [the former U.S. Secretary of State] made an agreement with him [Moshe Dayan, who was then Minister of Defense] to allow the Egyptians to enter [Israel during the Yom Kippur War], and then the Egyptians would switch to Israel's side, and there would be peace with Israel. Because the Americans would save the Egyptians from the hands of Israel—because Israel could conquer the entire world. Rabbi Shimon said, “I could conquer the whole world.” Now I know, but after that, everything will be returned because the redemption has not yet arrived. If it had been the redemption, then fine, but there will still be other kings [who will be wicked].  Rechavam worshiped idolatry, Manasseh worshiped idolatry, and every king worshiped idolatry.  So everything would have to be returned. So we already reach 72 zeros [in Rivka's jug, as mentioned earlier], which is the name Ayin-Bet, which is the secret with which it is possible to subdue Esav. It was written twice 'jug,' because when Eliezer saw Rivka, he saw Esav. Because the Tzaddik said this is Esav, so Esav came out, but then Rabbi Naftali Ropshitz [Rabbi Naftali Tzvi Horowitz of Ropshitz] came with his grandson and said: “You do not know, you are not looking.  It is written ‘macharish’ about Eliezer, the servant of Avraham (Bereishit 24:21).” The Rebbi says (in Likutei Moharan Part 2, Lesson 46): You have a kushiya (difficulty/question) about the Tzaddik, a kushiya about Hashem, questions about Hashem?  Why did the massacre happen on Simchat Torah? The truth is that they all entered straight into Gan Eden! There were 200 – 300 cyclists who rode from Rehovot to Be'eri – from Rehovot, they went straight to Gan Eden! They left at 5:00 from Rehovot, at 7:30, they already encountered the angels of destruction and were immediately sent to Gan Eden. They merited!! RABBI YEHUDA DERI SIMPLY SUPPORTED OUR YESHIVA, HE SENT ENDLESS DONATIONS. HE WOULD ENCOURAGE ANYONE WHO WOULD BECOME BRESLOV. ANYONE WHO WOULD BECOME A CHASID OF SHUVU BANIM, HE WOULD ENCOURAGE THEM, MAMASH ENCOURAGE THEM. EVERYONE SHOULD GO TO HIS FUNERAL IN SANHEDRIA; NOW THE FUNERAL HAS ALREADY STARTED. THE FUNERAL IS NEXT TO RABBI OVADIA YOSEF ZT”L. EVERYONE SHOULD MANAGE TO MAKE IT.  WE WILL MAKE THE SONGS A BIT SHORTER SO THAT EVERYONE CAN MAKE IT, TO GIVE HIM THE FINAL HONOR. NOW EVERYONE IS GOING TO RABBI YEHUDA DERI'S FUNERAL WITHOUT EXCEPTION.” https://vimeo.com/981708008
