Charged with the grave crime of treason, Rabbi Schneur Zalman, the founder of Chabad Chassidism was arrested and imprisoned by the Czarist regime in the year 1798. His only “crimes” were his selfless efforts to strengthen the Jewish people and to disseminate Chassidic teachings. Ultimately he was cleared of the charges and released on the 19th of Kislev. The day has since become recognized as a historic milestone in the development of the Chassidic movement.
