During a tish (spiritual meal), R. David of Lelov suddenly exclaimed to his hasidim, “I want to tell you the toira (a Hasidic sermon) that the Rebbe of Lublin is currently saying .” R. David then proceeded to recite the same sermon the Lubliner was saying. Despite this, R. David was very humble and did not wish to be credited with performing moftim (miracles). He expressed, “The entire world should be hasidim of the holy Rebbe. But if that were the case, the table where the Hasidim gather would have to stretch across the entire world. When so many gedolim (revered rabbis) and zaddikim (saints) would have been present at the Rebbe's tish, I would surely be seated at the very end of the table. But I remind you,” exclaimed R. David to his hasidim, “David’l will not hear what the holy Lubliner’s toira (Hasidic sermon).”
