A Memorial Candle
Reb Moshe Zeev Shlissel

He was born in Rzeszów in 5622 (1862) to Reb Yisrael Mordechai of blessed memory, a descendent of Rabbis and Torah scholars.

He lived and worked all his life in his birthplace Rzeszów, and there he died at the time of the Nazi conquest in 5702 (1941).

He had his Rabbinical ordination, but he did not use it for his livelihood[1]. He would give a regular lecture to the lay scholars early in the morning, and at the time of the afternoon service in the “Kloiz Hagadol” {large prayer hall} of the city.

He was a generous spirit, and he was always active in the maintaining of the three Torah schools which he founded. Not only this - but on every Friday and Sabbath he would examine the students. And woe upon the teacher whose students did not meet his standards.

* * *

Just as he was meticulous in his teaching, he was meticulous in the honesty of his business practices. During breaks from his teaching duties - when he was free from his work in Torah -- he would check that the prices in his business had not been raised beyond the acceptable measure. During the time of the First World War, when the prices would change daily, he was very careful not to exceed the acceptable range.

His children Reb Avraham, Zelda, Sara, Esther and Berta, may G-d avenge their deaths, were killed with their families in the holocaust.

May his son Reb Baruch Shlissel be blessed with a long life. He was one of the Mizrachi activists of Rzeszów, and a member of the communal council. From the year 5785 (1925) he lived in the Land of Israel and he is one of the activists of the Organization of Rzeszów Émigrés.

In Eternal Memory

Of the Martyrs of the Community of

Rzeszów

And environs in Galicia, may G-d avenge their deaths
They were victims of the evil Nazi regime
Their pure blood was spilled by
Unclean hands in sanctification of G-d's name.
Their Holy memory will be guarded in the hearts of the survivors of
the community
And in the hearts of all the Nation of Israel forever.
May Their Souls Be Bound In The Bonds Of Eternal Life

Memorial day is the 19th of Av

The Organization of Émigrés of Rzeszów and environs in Israel.

 

Translator's Footnote

  1. Literally “he did not use it as a an axe to hew with”. This is a quote from “Pirke Avot”, the Mishnaic tractate “Ethics of the Fathers”. The quoted mishna praises those who do not use their torah scholarship as a means of their livelihood. Back
