On the 28th of Sivan, we commemorate 84 years since the arrival of the Seventh Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, and his wife, the righteous Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka, in the United States of America\u2014a moment of salvation from the looming danger of the Nazis.<\/p>

When World War II broke out, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson and Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka were living in Paris. The Sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, who was already residing in the United States at that time, made tremendous efforts to rescue his daughter and son-in-law. After numerous letters and phone calls, Rebbe Rayatz was able to arrange for their evacuation\u2014a mission that marked the beginning of a new era in the global spread of Chassidism.

<\/p>

The website https:\/\/www.chabad.org<\/a> describes it as follows:\u00a0
“While his father-in-law did all he could to secure the future Rebbe and Rebbetzin\u2019s secure passage to America, Rabbi\u00a0Menachem M. Schneerson, who at the time was known by his acronym, the Ramash, faced a Paris in upheaval. The few months of quiet gave way to Germany\u2019s June 5, 1940 invasion of the 400-mile stretch of land between Abbeville and the Upper Rhine. By June 14, a swastika could be seen atop Eiffel Tower.<\/p>

Two days before the occupation of Paris, the future Rebbe and Rebbetzin fled for Vichy. From there, they went to Nice and on to Marseille. From there they fled from France and on to Lisbon, Portugal, where they boarded the S.S. Serpa Pinto for the New World.<\/p>

While fleeing, most passengers carried a suitcase or two, but the Ramash through all his travels and the turmoil took many cases of scholarly books and manuscripts written by\u00a0Chabad-Lubavitch\u00a0leaders, many of them passed down from each Rebbe to the next.<\/p>

Amongst the items he brought were notes of the Ramash\u2019s many public talks on the weekly\u00a0Torah<\/span>\u00a0portion and classes on the\u00a0Talmud. Many of the teachings, which the future Rebbe would continue to commit to writing for the remainder of his life, comprised deep analytic interpretations of a specific source text that would then flow into the Kabbalistic and Chasidic lessons which he distilled so that everyone could apply those teachings to their daily lives.<\/p>

\u201cLittle is known about the Rebbe\u2019s stay in Portugal,\u201d states the website of the local Jewish community, Comunidade Israelita de Lisboa, that to this day celebrates the fact that the Ramash stopped there on his way to the United States. \u201cWhat is known is that in the collection of the writings of the Rebbe, there are notes from a lecture in a local synagogue, written during his stay in Portugal on a very obscure text from the Talmud.\u201d<\/p>

The Rebbe once analyzed a puzzling Talmudic expression about finding a fish for a sick person, basing his analysis on other Talmudic sources and many commentaries before framing the discussion according to the teachings of\u00a0Kabbalah<\/span>. He described a fish\u2019s life as a metaphor for Jewish existence.<\/p>

Fish survive because they know their environment and they remain immersed in it, the Rebbe wrote. If you see a fish flailing on the dock, its prognosis is instantaneous and universal.<\/p>

The same can be said for the Jewish people, he concluded. A Jew has his own environment and source of spiritual nourishment: the\u00a0Torah. Like the sick person in the Talmud, a Jew sometimes tries to live \u201cout of the water,\u201d and unlike the fish, his source of vitality isn\u2019t always apparent to all. The key for the Jew is to recognize his source of life.”<\/p>
