1. Yahrtzeit of Reb Moyshe Leib Ginzburg
Reb Moyshe Leib Ginzburg, son-in-law of the Rebbe Maharash, is commemorated on the 15th day of Tishrei. His passing occurred in the year 5695, which corresponds to 1934. This date is significant as it follows closely after the yahrtzeit of his father-in-law, the Rebbe Maharash, who passed away on the 13th of Tishrei.2. Marriage and Family Background
Reb Moyshe Leib married Rebbetzin Devorah Leah, the older daughter of the Rebbe Maharash, in the year 5632 (1872). The couple resided in Vitebsk throughout their lives. The previous Rebbe often recounted his visits to his aunt and uncle in Vitebsk, highlighting the familial connection as Devorah Leah was the sister of the Rebbe Rashab, the Previous Rebbe's father.3. Legacy and Stories
The previous Rebbe shared many stories he heard during his visits to Reb Moyshe Leib and Rebbetzin Devorah Leah's home. These anecdotes contributed to preserving their legacy within Chabad history and teachings.4. Passing and Burial
Reb Moyshe Leib passed away on the first day of Sukkos and was buried on the second day of Sukkos. This practice, while generally avoided today due to concerns about desecration of Yom Tov, was permissible in earlier times, especially in smaller communities where logistics were simpler.5. Burial Location
His burial took place in Malachovka, a location near Moscow. This site serves as a memorial for those wishing to honor his memory and legacy within Chabad tradition.Notes
