In the silence of Liska's Jewish cemetery, a man, baring his heart and soul, immerses himself in prayer at the grave of Hershel Lisker - Tzvi Hersh Friedman. Out of profound sincerity, he requests a divine miracle of love, hope, and healing to nurture and restore the whole community.


In the dignity of prayer, the man bows respectfully in front of the ancient tombstone, as if embracing the border between the past and the present. The revered resting place of Rav Hershel Lisker, or Tzvi Hersh Friedman, in Liska Jewish Cemetery acts as a gateway to the Eternal, where devout prayers reach and intertwine in faith. 


Thousands of devotees visit this revered place today, feeling the palpable presence of Rebbe Tzvi Hersh Friedman’s spirit, which warmly embraces those seeking a message of hope and faith. Requests, wishes, blessings. Words in prayer are not just sounds, but emotions and desires that come from the heart and reach Him.


At the heart of Orthodox Jewish prayer is a plea for blessings upon the purity of childhood and healing for those who are ill. As a custodian of faith and heritage, the cemetery merges the reverence of past centuries with the heartfelt requests of today. 


The Kerestir Rebbe, Yeshaya Steiner, appeared here from time to time to pray and ask for a blessing at the grave of his great teacher, Hershel Lisker. His teacher played a crucial role in helping the Kerestir Rebbe's community maintain their traditions and remain steadfast in their faith during the most challenging times. As the man's words resonate with sincerity in this holy moment, the prayer becomes a bridge connecting the past, present, and future, channeling the deepest aspirations of the community.
