Plans For The Palace

R’ Zushe met with architect Zev Marganit. At the end of their
meeting, they said l’chaim on the Rebbe’s mashke (vodka); when they parted it was close to midnight.

​

Very early in the morning, the architect phoned R’ Zushe who was still asleep. “THE PLANS ARE READY!” called out the architect.

“HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? SUCH BLUEPRINTS DEMAND WEEKS OF WORK!” answered a bewildered R’ Zushe.

Zev responded: “Well, when I got home, I felt an urge to get started on the plans. I sat down and began drawing. Suddenly, I felt as if my hand had stopped obeying me and was running swiftly over the paper. In disbelief, a complete blueprint of a magnificent palace with all its most intricate details lay before my eyes.

My hand did hold the pencil, but it certainly did not draw such perfect
plans!

All I can say is that the Rebbe himself drew the blueprints...

R’ Zushe showed the plans to many architects and they all came to the same conclusion: “No human hand could have done such a superb job!!”
