The town of Liska, known as one of the most sacred places in the world, is filled with special moments where the deep prayers at the gravesite of Rebbe Hershele Lisker zt"l resonate powerfully.
This prayer asks for healing for the sick, wealth for the poor, and peace and health for the people of Israel and all of humanity. In the Jewish world, Liska is regarded as a special location, primarily due to the Liska Rebbe’s construction of a famous synagogue that stood as one of the largest in Europe at the time. Jewish communities keep the memory of the town and the tzadik alive, as many make pilgrimages here to seek blessings in the spirit of 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 close disciple relationship endures within Hasidic communities, particularly among Satmar followers, who cherish the legacies of both Teitelbaum and Rebbe Hershele Lisker.
Hasidic communities around the world, including those in Borough Park, Williamsburg, and across Israel, maintain a profound respect for the town of Liska and the legacy of the Liska Rebbe. As a prominent Kivrei Tzadikim site, the Liska cemetery allows prayers to be filled with extraordinary power, drawing on the tzadik's merit. On the yahrzeit (יארצייט) of the Rebbe's passing, thousands of individuals embark on a pilgrimage to this site to pray and ask for blessings for their families and communities.
The Liska Rebbe’s spiritual legacy, articulated in texts such as Ach Pri Tevu'ah (אך פרי תבואה) and Hayoshor veHatov (הישר והטוב), serves as a guiding light for Jewish communities worldwide. The sacred land of Liska is not only a place of past miracles and blessings but continues to be a site where prayers, filled with deep faith and devotion, are heard and bring blessings to all who come to seek them.
