This week I have three stories for you. The first takes place at a tisch of the first Belzer Rebbe, where a single piece of fruit changes everything. The second follows a chassid of Rabbi Mordechai of Chernobyl who sets out on a long business journey carrying two etrogim — one for his Rebbe, one for the holy Ruzhiner. And the third is a story of the Baal Shem Tov, told on a wedding day, when a debt of one thousand rubles arrives at the worst possible moment.
