Thursday night, the eve of 10th of Shvat, 1991
The Admor returned from the Ohel. The synagogue was packed, especially near the Amud of the prayer leader, since the Admor would be the prayer leader of Maariv. The entire place was packed since the rumour that the maamar would be handed out had spread through the whole community.
After the Tefillah, the Admor said Mishnayot and Kadish as was his Minhag, and then the Gabai officially declared that a Chaluka would take place in a few minutes upstairs next to the Rebbe’s room, where the Chaluka of bills took place every Sunday.
It was impossible not to find in the distribution of the article also the contemporary connection in light of the miracles and wonders of the ‘Year of Miracles’ and the ‘Year of Ar’enu Niflaos’ throughout the world and especially in the Land of Israel. The last words of the article are – "And this is what he did miracles for our ancestors and the request is that he be ‘also at this time etc.’"
For hours on end, the Rebbe stood on his feet and gave the audience the Ma’amar containing the bills of charity.
On Shabbat Parashat Beshalach, the Rebbe mentioned the Chaluka of the Kuntres, explaining that the Chalukah would encourage its study in particular, and the Torah in general, and would also constitute an acceleration of true and complete redemption. (From the Mazkeret Netzach Chalukot Chabad, pp. 47-48).
This is the Kuntres – in good condition. Stains on the binding. The item was delivered by a Chabad Chassid and confirmation will be given by the Autction House.
