Special moments arise in the town of Liska, one of the holiest sites worldwide, where the heartfelt prayers at the grave of the great tzadik, Rebbe Hershele Lisker zt"l, resonate with blessings.
The prayer calls for restoration for the sick, financial blessings for the impoverished, and peace and health for the people of Israel and all people everywhere. Liska has historically been an important place in Jewish life, especially because it was where the Liska Rebbe established a remarkable synagogue, which was one of the largest in Europe then. The spirit of the town and its tzadik endures brightly in Jewish communities, with many visiting to ask for blessings in accordance with the Kivrei Tzadikim tradition.
Rebbe Hershele Lisker (רבי הערשעלע ליסקער), better known as Zvi Hirsh Friedmann (צבי הירש פרידמאן) and the celebrated author of Ach Pri Tevu'ah (אך פרי תבואה), was a significant Hasidic leader whose teachings remain influential among his followers today. The Rebbe studied under the famous Teitelbaum Moshe zt"l (משה טייטלבוים זצ״ל), also referred to as the Yismach Moshe (ישמח משה), from whom he learned valuable Torah knowledge and Hasidic wisdom. The enduring disciple relationship is vibrant in Hasidic communities, notably among Satmar adherents, who pay tribute to the memories of Teitelbaum and Rebbe Hershele Lisker.
In locations like Borough Park, Williamsburg, and throughout Israel, Hasidic communities cherish the town of Liska and hold the Liska Rebbe's merit in the highest esteem. The Liska cemetery is regarded as one of the most vital Kivrei Tzadikim sites, where the tzadik's merit enhances the power of the prayers offered there. During the Rebbe's yahrzeit (יארצייט), thousands gather at this site to pray and request blessings for their families and communities.
The teachings of the Liska Rebbe, preserved in works like Ach Pri Tevu'ah (אך פרי תבואה) and Hayoshor veHatov (הישר והטוב), continue to inspire and lead Jewish communities across the globe. This holy land of Liska, known for its history of miracles and blessings, is also a vibrant site where fervent prayers are listened to, granting blessings to those who come in search.
