A story about the greatness of this great man.

Rabbi Gedaliah Moishe was in Siberia. During his stay in Siberia, one Sabbath they called him from the headquarters and told him: 'They want to release you. But there is a process, a procedure.' In Israel they call it bureaucracy, I hope I said that correctly.

They told him, 'You just have to sign your name and you're free.'.

'"What's wrong, I'm sick today, I don't want to sign," he exclaimed.

He was already an old man, he didn't want to sign. Behind him was another old Jew, who was also called to release him, so this Jew saw that Rabbi Gedaliah Moishe didn't want to sign, so he didn't want to sign either. But Rabbi Gedaliah Moishe intervened and said, 'Bring me the pen, I'll sign for him.'.

He said: 'For him it's a matter of life and death, I don't worry about myself, I want to sacrifice myself for the Shabbos, for the other there is a matter of life and death.'.

This was the greatness of the soul of Rabbi Gedaliah Moishe.

Look how many people came here in the middle of the night, they don't care about anything, come on, come on, there's no Corona, there's nothing, brother. Such prayers, with God's help.
