Afterwards the Kinos were recited. As at night, the Rebbe shlit"a recited the Kinos with intense weeping, lamenting over the destruction of our House of Splendor and the anguish of the Shechinah.

On leaving, the Rebbe shlit"a thanked the non-Jewish owners of the hotel for granting permission to use the hall and for allowing the eruv to be made.

At around 7:05 the Rebbe shlit"a entered the beis medrash for Mincha. The Rebbe shlit"a wrapped himself in tallis and tefillin, kissed the tzitzis during Krias Shema, and completed the day and Kavei.

On leaving, a group of talmidim from the Yeshiva Gedolah of Boro Park, who had spent Shabbos in the Rebbe's presence, took their leave. The Rebbe shlit"a wished them, "May you have a safe journey and travel in good health; may they go in good fortune." A conversation ensued about the travel arrangements for the night, on the topic of "a person should go in good fortune." The Rebbe told the bochurim to leave, differently than planned, the following morning.

May it be His will that the Beis HaMikdash be rebuilt speedily in our days, and may these days be transformed to joy and gladness

=Continuation of the Shabbos Kodesh report, Parshas Devarim – Shabbos Chazon, B'tzeil HaKodesh=

In the afternoon, the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a washed for Shalosh Seudos in his holy home.

The Rebbe shlit"a entered for the seudah of Raava d'Raavin at 8:15. The Rebbe tasted the challah and wished those present "L'chaim." For the zemiros, the Rebbe shlit"a honored the following: Odeh – HaRav R' Eliezer Weiss; Shir HaMaalos – HaRav R' Yonah Hoffman. The Torah thought was on the verse in Eichah, "They have opened their mouths against you" – "Hashem has done what He planned." Quoting Rashi, he explained why the letter "peh" precedes the letter "ayin" (in the order of the chapters): the churban came about because people were not careful about falsehood. He explained in the way of mussar regarding the matters of the churban, that if one is not careful about falsehood, the Divine Presence does not rest upon him, which would protect him from stumbling in grave sins.

Afterward, the Rebbe continued with awesome weeping: "Now we stand on Erev Tishah B'Av towards evening, when the impure ones have entered the holy place and the Beis HaMikdash." Choking on his tears, he said: "1953 years have already passed since the churban Beis HaMikdash, already 1953 times we have mourned over the churban Beis HaMikdash," and still we have not been saved. But Jews believe with complete faith, even when we do not see, that Hashem will redeem the Jewish children. The Rebbe quoted a Yaitiv Lev, that "Whoever mourns over the destruction of Yerushalayim merits to see its consolation/its joy," meaning that while lamenting one must already picture its consolation and joy. So too the holy Rebbe of Lublin zy"a, whose yahrzeit is tonight, said that he already sees how the Jews will say in the future, "And You, Hashem our G-d, will give us the day of Tishah B'Av." He continued, "We do not see, but we believe," and then concluded with powerful holy blessings: "And these days will be turned into gladness and joy."

After the Torah, the singing of "Ani Maamin B'viyas HaMashiach" continued for several long minutes, as the Rebbe shlit"a shed rivers of tears.

Yedid Nefesh: HaRav R' Fishel Farkash. Kel Mistatter: HaRav R' Yaakov Shalom Weiss – Montreal. The Rebbe blessed the cup, and the seudah concluded at 9:30.
