Continued from Preceding Page Near 12 Mile Rd. bet. Evergreen & Southfield 559-1969 ■ Ages was once at a demonstration , when people began throwing rocks at cars. I was against both the police that protected the motorists and the people here (in Mea Shearim) who threw the rocks. With one hand I shook a finger and warned them not to drive on the sabbath, and with the other I shook at the ones throwing and told them to stop." Why do so many observant Jews profane the sabbath by acting out in violent ways? Yacubson looked down and muttered, "It would take too long to explain?' But he ad- ded, "I will only say that even now I am contacting every bet din (religious court) in the country, to have them rule against throwing rocks and trying to force people. I want them all to sit at one table, and I will pick three wise men and they will sit in judgment on all the Jewish people regarding what can and can- not be done on shabbat." Until then, the Shabbos Rebbe hopes to set his own example, standing alone against Jews from both sides who profane the sabbath — literally a voice crying in the wilderness in the Judean Hills at the gates of Jeru- salem Implicit in his peaceful scolding is a rejection of the pious who have elevated vio- lenced to a sabbath ritual in the Ibrah's name. "Remember, the path of the Torah is peaceful," he reminds. On one recent Saturday, as he was waving frantically at cars speeding by, a secular Jew stopped at the light and rolled down his window. "It is forbidden to drive on the sab- bath," the rebbe admonished. "Are you a Jew, I think you are. So then why do you drive?" The secular Jew tried to explain, and the rebbe began pulling at his sleeve. "Please come with me. Leave your car here," pleaded the rebbe. "Don't even move it. Leave it in the middle of the street. Come up to my house. I will feed you coffee and cake, and tell you stories of wondrous things about to come. In a few hours the sun will set and you can go back to your car." The secular Jew politely declined, even as traffic began backing up behind him, and placed the car in gear. In a look of both panic and sad- ness the rebbe again pleaded, "Please, please, do not drive. Leave the car in the street. Come to my house and rest. I will tell you of something wondrous that is about to happen. Please, I beg of you, do not drive?' His last words were barely heard as the motorist pulled away, and the exhaust filled the air. But in the rearview mirror, the form of the rebbe could clearly be seen, a finger pointing up- ward and waving. Unmistak- ably, he was yelling, "Shab- bos! Shabbos!" It has been this way for 20 years, Yacubson peaceably imploring sabbath motorists to turn off their engines and rest. How many has he per- suaded in those twenty years? With a broad smile, the Shab- bos Rebbe brags, "Two!" In one instance, a taxi driver felt guilty, parked his car on the side, spent some time talking with the rebbe, and then walked home. An- other time the rebbe noticed a man about to get into his car. He raced over and appealed to him to not turn the key. "I finally convinced him. He did not drive that Shabbos." In Mea Shearim, Rabbi Yacubson is revered. As he walks through the alleyways and shortcuts of the neigh- borhood, shielding his eyes from the sight of women, those around him acknow- ledge who he is, and his mis- sion. "He is coming," prom- ises the Shabbos Rebbe. "When? I cannot give dates. I cannot give dates. But in our lifetime!" Asked whether he meant in his lifetime or a young person's lifetime, he replies with a shaking of his head and a smile, "Both, and even in the lifetime of a man more than eighty years old. Soon, I tell you, very soon:' Standing in the alleyway outside his room, the rebbe adds, "And so, for 20 years I have been in my organization — the Network of the Right- eous Messiah?' How many members does the Network have? "One!" he answers proudly. "But more are join- ing every day. "Why do I yell, `Shabbos?' Because the Meshiach is com- ing," he explains, "and in the heavenly court when they ask why did no one cry out when Jews profaned the sabbath, one man can stand proudly and declare 'I did. I screamed: " ❑ N EWS 'Lights, Camera' Tel Aviv — The Golan- Globus film company has signed an agreement with the Soviet state-run Mosfilm to coproduce a comedy spy- thriller to be filmed in Israel and the USSR. Moscow currently has no diplomatic relations with Israel. According to a Golan- Globus spokesman, the film will tell the story of a non-Jew from Soviet Georgia who goes to Israel and is arrested as a suspected KGB agent.
