BH 🕯 Rabbi Yosei Saragossi – יוסף סרגוסי
📍 Ein Zeitim, near Tzfat
Tucked in the hills of the Galil rests a Tzaddik whose name is whispered in connection with gentleness, unity, and quiet miracles. Rabbi Yosei Saragossi, known as the “Tzaddik HaLavan” (The White Tzaddik), was a shepherd of souls, both in his lifetime and long after.
💠 A Man of Peace
Exiled from Spain, he arrived in Eretz Yisrael carrying not bitterness but dignity. He became a spiritual father to the community of Tzfat, quietly building Torah, tefillah, and achdus among people who had lost so much.
💠 Respected By All
His presence brought such peace that even the surrounding nations valued him. He wasn’t just a rabbi; he was a bridge between people. His humility opened hearts, and his sincerity softened harshness in the world.
💠 A Miraculous Memory
Long after his passing, a decree fell upon the Jewish community — impossible and cruel. People gathered at his kever and begged for mercy. In an open miracle, the impossible shifted. What couldn’t be done — was done. Not by might, but by the merit of a soul who lived in quiet righteousness.
⸻
Oversimplified:
He didn’t speak loudly, but the world changed around him.
He didn’t seek power, but kings respected him.
He didn’t demand miracles — he became one.
