They would make it across, but instead of running away, they would turn around, look back into the river to see if there were horses in trouble and then jump BACK in to save them." There were tears in his eyes now, he was leaning forward with arms outstretched as though grasping for the past. Like I say, they were great experts, and sometimes they would run for days until they got there, but when they did they would start screaming and shooting their guns in the air and force the herd into the widest, deepest part of the river. And there were the young horses, that had the stamina so they didn’t get tired, but didn’t have the strength to cross over, so they just floundered in the middle of the river." His voice became serious, and he sat a bit straighter. I just love fish, I really love ‘em!” Finally his neighbor had enough and yelled, “My friend you are a liar!!” “A liar?” said the startled glutton as he stopped for a moment and wiped off his mouth with a handful of napkins. But as opposite as they are, these two commonly touch on the essence of Judaism: Abstinence from Araiyot is essential to ‘holiness’ (Rashi Vayikra 19:1) and “Brotherly Love” is essential to the entire Torah (ibid 19:18). One long cold Siberian winter night, when they were sitting in the barracks (the guards were afraid to let them work outside in the dark) he opened his heart to Rav Mendel and began reminiscing about....his horse. “There is a saying in the name of Rav Zusia of Anipoli” He once told me, “that from a thief you can learn seven lessons on how to serve G-d” (hard work, positive attitude, etc.). There were always three types of horses; the majority were the regular horses that would make it to the other side and run away to live their lives. Some are very negative, like the twenty-two forbidden sexual relationships (Araiyot) and some very positive like “Love your friend like yourself”.
