In Hungary, Olaszliszka—referred to as Liska by the local Jewish community—is a delightful sanctuary that sees tens of thousands of Orthodox Jewish visitors annually.

Liska Jewish Cemetery is a special location where deep-seated traditions and committed faith are preserved. The holy grave of Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch Friedman, or as the community calls him: "Hershel Lisker", the first home of Hasidism in Europe, is located here. The first Lisker Rebbe, known for his remarkable poverty, dedicated his life to the teachings of faith, acts of charity, and miraculous assistance. His legacy includes many miraculous acts, with numerous individuals finding healing and prosperity through his blessings. The exemplary life of the rebbe had a substantial effect on the Orthodox Jewish communities of his era, shaping their current practices and beliefs. Even today, tens of thousands of pilgrims make their way to visit the rebbe each year, with the yahrzeit observed on the 14th of Av.

The Liska Hasidic dynasty, along with Rabbi Tzvi Hersh Friedman, was crucial in advancing the reach of Hasidism within Hungary and internationally. Yeshaya Steiner, the Kerestir Rebbe and a student of the Liska Rebbe, signed his correspondence with: "Yeshaya, son of R. Moshe, who studied under the righteous Rebbe of Liska."

The reputation of the Lisker Rebbe for healing was known throughout various lands. Many people from other countries also migrated to the village of Liska and asked him to heal them. The community held a deep belief that the rabbi's blessings and prayers could alleviate physical and mental suffering. Visitors to his grave still reported experiencing his spiritual influence and comfort, even after he had passed away.

The two caretakers of the Liska Jewish cemetery performed an act that is not only the graves, but also the bearer of respect and remembrance for the past. Candles were placed at each grave, their flames flickering in reverence to the souls of those who once lived in this small village. The candle flames are viewed as a bridge connecting the past and the present, their light emerging from the depths of memory.

The flame of candles holds profound symbolic significance in the Jewish faith. The flames do more than illuminate; they also open a gateway to the Eternal. 

As the Book says: "Man's soul is the Lord's lamp, which searches out all the innermost parts." Proverbs 20:27
