Shlomo Carlebach - From Siberia to Tel Aviv: The Remarkable Wedding Story Behind the Song Shomrim,

Reb Shlomo Carlebach ztl From Siberia to Tel Aviv: The Remarkable Wedding Story Behind the Song Shomrim, Reb Shlomo used to tell about a Jew who had spent years in Siberia, suffering under the Soviet regime. When he was finally freed and made it to Israel, he had no family, no friends, no money — nothing in the world except the fact that he was a Jew who survived. He longed for one thing: to get married and start a new life in the Holy Land. He met a woman who had also survived terrible hardships, and they decided to marry. But they had no money for a hall, no band, no catering — nothing. Someone told him: “There’s a rabbi named Shlomo Carlebach. If you find him, you’ll have a wedding.” Reb Shlomo said: “A Jew returning from Siberia? A Jew starting life again in Eretz Yisrael? We are making the biggest wedding ever!” They made the chuppah on the beach in Tel Aviv, late at night. And then something magical happened — the kind of thing Reb Shlomo lived for: People on the #beach saw a #chuppah , heard Reb Shlomo singing, and they began to gather… First a few… Then dozens… Then hundreds… Until the whole beach was dancing. Strangers became family. Israelis who never met each other became one. The Jew from Siberia, who arrived alone, suddenly had a nation celebrating with him. Reb Shlomo would say: “Under the chuppah, this Yid cried like a child. He cried because in Siberia he thought he would die forgotten. But on a beach in Tel Aviv, he saw that a Jew is never alone.” The song is a powerful prayer for constant vigilance and ultimate redemption. The Plea for Protection: The lyrics are a direct plea to God to guard the city of Jerusalem and the Jewish people without pause. The repetition of "all the day and all the night" emphasizes the unending need for Divine care, especially in a world where danger or darkness can appear at any time.
