MEL FARR, SR.
PRESIDENT
Chmielnicki, who led the 1648 rebel-
lion against Polish rule during which
tens of thousands of Jews were killed.
Steinsaltz still refers to the city as
Proskurov — the original name of the
town that was changed to Khmelnits-
ki in the 1950s to honor the man who
is still revered in Ukraine as a pioneer
of that country's movement for
national liberation.
But Steinsaltz used the fact that the
Jews rebuilt their lives here after the
Chmielnicki massacre to provide an
inspirational message. "In percentage,
that massacre was like the Holocaust.
It was a disaster. But it was not the
end of Jewish life here," he said.
Indeed, less than 100 years ago
after that this community's spiritual
quest generated a new religious move-
ment: Chasidism.
Steinsaltz made stops in several
towns and shtetls to visit the graves of
some of the most revered Chasidic
leaders of the early generations.
Among them was the Ba'al Shem-
Tov, Hebrew for the master of the
good name. The Ba'al Shem Toy, also
known as Besht, was one of the
founders of Chasidism, the populist,
charismatic movement founded in the
18th century.
His grave — inside a small ascetic
white-brick mausoleum — stands in
the middle of a nearly destroyed Jew-
ish cemetery in a town of Medzibezh,
where Besht spent his most creative
years and where he died in 1760.
During the Nazi occupation of
World War II, a German artillery bat-
talion stood at the cemetery. Only a
couple of dozen of graves survived,
including the ones of Besht and some
of his family.
Today, Medzibezh, a site of pil-
grimage for Chasidic Jews since the
last century, has only one Jewish fami-
ly.
A new synagogue for pilgrims — a
very modest looking building — is
being built next CO the cemetery with
funds donated by a Chasidic family
from France.
The group also visited graves of
Chasidic leaders in Uman, Anopol
and Berdichev.
A member of the group said the
visits helped her understand the spiri-
tual needs that bring people to these
sites.
"We experienced living history on
this trip," said Natalia Gutkina, a Jew-
ish teacher from the Russian town of
Nizhny Novgorod. "It's amazing that
one can still feel the spirit of life that
has long gone."
