I have been reading this thread with great interest-first time posting on it.
“The phrase “the Rebbe runs the world” is a simple translation of “Tzaddik Gozer VeHakadosh Baruch Hu Mekayem”. No more and no less. At least that’s how we take it to mean.”
Would you say that other gedolim have the power of “Tzaddik Gozer…?” if yes, then how can it simply be that ” the REBBE runs the world?” What about the other tzaddikim who are gozer? Maybe THEY run the world (Ch”V) And if no, then you have some more explaining to do…
