הרב סטבסקי שליט"א מדבר על הגה"צ הרב אליעזר ברלנד שליט"א

In an inspiring video, Rabbi Stavsky shlit"a shares deep insights into the figure of the Gaon and Tzaddik, Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, while emphasizing the Heavenly protection that accompanies him and his tremendous spiritual work for the sake of the people of Israel.
## Heavenly Protection from Above
The Rabbi opens with words of praise for Rav Eliezer ben Etiya (Rav Berland), noting that he has extraordinary protection from Heaven. He mentions events where spiritual decrees were sweetened or altered in the merit of the presence and work of the tzaddik, and emphasizes absolute trust in his leadership.
## "Eliezer in Place of Eliezer" - The Connection with Mohorosh
During the conversation, a memory arises regarding the passing of Mohorosh (Rabbi Eliezer Shlomo Schick zt"l). Rabbi Stavsky mentions the phrase "Eliezer in place of Eliezer," hinting at the deep spiritual connection and the passing of the baton or mutual protection between the tzaddikim during a harsh decree upon the people of Israel.
## Worldwide Tikkunim: From Zimbabwe to Morocco
The Rabbi explains that Rav Berland operates in hidden and revealed ways all across the globe. "He does everything intentionally," the Rabbi explains, "He makes tikkunim, he irons out the world." All of the Rabbi's journeys and wanderings to places like Zimbabwe and Morocco are not coincidental, but rather part of a broad spiritual plan for the tikkun (rectification) of the world and its preparation for the Geulah (Redemption).
## The Power of Humiliations as Part of the Tikkun (Rectification)
One of the central points in the conversation is the reference to the humiliations that the Rabbi undergoes. Rabbi Stavsky emphasizes that the humiliations are also an inseparable part of the tikkun (rectification): "Even the humiliations - he brought about. He makes tikkunim, he does great things." The tzaddik, according to his words, consciously takes upon himself degradation and humiliations in order to sweeten judgments from upon the people of Israel and to bring about salvations.
## Conclusion: Prayer and Faith in the Tzaddik
In conclusion, the Rabbi calls upon the public to continue praying, but at the same time emphasizes the importance of faith and trust in the tzaddik: "One must pray, but rely on him as well." He concludes his words with a blessing of success and blessing for all the listeners.
