A man's dedication

The Blaze writes about The Amazing Thing Russia’s Chief Rabbi Did Last Week to Make Sure He Kept the Sabbath.

The rabbi landed in Moscow ten minutes before the start of the Sabbath after particpating in a ceremony along with the Russian President.

Rabbi Lazar phoned his home, notifying them about the debacle and started walking back to his home. A government official, seeing him walk, offered him a ride. “We’ll do it quick. No one will know…” the man said.

The rabbi declined the offer and proceeded to set out – on foot – for the eight hour, 18 mile walk home. He finally arrived at 6:00 a.m. the next day. Chabad Info reports that during Saturday morning prayer services at the Marina Roscha Synagogue, “the Rabbi could barely keep himself standing, however he gave a speech like he had slept the entire night.”

One comment posted under the article was the following:

Much respect to this man for his dedication to what he believes and his unusual determination to walk the walk as well as talk the talk.
