He concluded with abundant blessings for young and old in all good things.
It concluded at around 11:50.

Yom Tov of Shavuos 5786, "B'tzeil HaKodesh" with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a, among the holy community of Kiryas Joel

A splendor that cannot be described in words!!

Fortunate are you, for you have heard the praise of this song; may you be established thus in this company. With praise and thanks to Hashem, we merited to celebrate the uplifted Yom Tov together with tens of thousands of Jews, as one man with one heart, under one roof, an ingathering of exiles of chassidim from every place, in the shadow of holiness of the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a. "And they all entered into the covenant together, they declared as one: 'We will do and we will hear.'" Each one was uplifted and the holy spark within us was kindled, each according to his level, so that we may be elevated to the level of the exalted, accepting the Torah with all our heart, all our soul and all our might, and receiving understanding and the sweetness and pleasantness of the Torah. We merited that "Moshe descended from the mountain to the people," taking part in the holy tefillos and tishen and hearing fiery words of holiness. "Assemble the people for Me, that they may learn," on the second day of Yom Tov, with Torah study in public, in which holiness was arranged, soaking up Torah and holiness and taking it along for the entire year, and receiving all the holy blessings, material and spiritual, of the Yom Tov, forever.

Were the seas ink and all the waters of the world gathered, and the inhabitants of the earth scribes and writers, it would still not suffice
it is still very difficult and almost impossible to put into words the stirrings of the heart of the festive Yom Tov in the shadow of holiness. Here we will merely relay matters as they were, the order of the exalted and holy days, may they come upon us for good, and more than what we have read to you is written here.

A closer look into the great and magnificent building, a hill to which all turn, the Beis Medrash HaGadol of Kiryas Joel, in all its branches, halls, and the 8 added galleries, with 7,880 men's seats, may they multiply.
In addition to the 3,160 seats in the women's section.
For the tens of thousands of Yisroel who come to be in the shadow of holiness toward the time of the giving of our holy Torah.

A splendor that cannot be described in words!!

First glimpse of the elevated holy table at the close of the Yom Tov, after the exalted Yom Tov of Shavuos in our stronghold Kiryas Joel, b'tzeil hakodesh with the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a.

"Were the seas ink and all the waters of the gathering, the inhabitants of the earth would write and record the splendor"—it is still difficult and nearly impossible for a few pictures to reflect the essence and elevation of such an exalted Yom Tov. Only those who were part of the historic, huge crowd of over ten thousand talmidim and chassidim, may they multiply, celebrating the festive Yom Tov, will be able to understand and grasp it at all.
It goes without saying that the quality of the flavor and the stirring feelings of this exalted Yom Tov will long be remembered, and will remain engraved in the hearts of those who gathered in the shadow of faith.
