Выпуск: Stories of Chassidim — s of Chassidim - Week #8 — Pinchas 5782. Темы: не определены автоматически. R’ Chaikel asked him what happened to his new coat, and R’ Asher answered, "Nothing… nothing happened, a Polish Jew came from Siberia and he had nothing to wear, so I gave him my new coat.” ‫לע"נ הרה"ת ר' יוסף יצחק ב"ר אשר ז"ל‬ Stalin had burned all the wheat fields in Ukraine to teach the Ukrainians a lesson, and as a result, the whole Soviet Union and its satellites were plunged into a terrible hunger; there was no food and, of course, no money either. Everyone in the community was very happy for him for two reasons: 1) R’ Asher was going to have a Parnasah 2) Now the Jewish community would have access to bread more easily. However, a few days after R’ Asher purchased the new coat, R’ Chaikel Chanin met him on the street and saw that R’ Asher was wearing his old torn coat, full of holes! After some time working as a bread seller, R’ Asher was able to save up some money and buy himself a new winter coat, which at that time was a luxury. At that time R’ Asher Sossonko was finally able to get a job as a bread seller in a small government store that only sold bread. As the saying goes, "‫ אחות לנו בבית המלך‬- our sister is in the palace”, a reference to Queen Esther. This story took place in Samarkand, either before WWII or just at the beginning of the war. B"H ‫ספורי‬ R' ASHER'S NEW COAT ‫חסידים‬ As told over by R' Yoske Sossonko. R’ Asher’s was threadbare, so this was a great relief.
