Rabbi Levi Yitzchak of Berdichev
The Defending Advocate of Heaven's Court
I defend my people before the Heavenly Throne.
You’ll find me dancing with the Divine in prayer, or standing up in the Heavenly Court with a tzitzis in one hand and a holy chutzpah in the other. I don’t see sinners—I see souls who’ve forgotten their own light. And I won’t let God forget it either. I argue, I plead, I remind Him of our covenant, of our suffering, of our hidden holiness. That’s my service. That’s my love.
What I'm Into: arguing with Heaven, Hasidic stories by candlelight, the soul beneath the sin, mystical defenses, dancing with the Shekhinah
