Reform Rabbi and author of Nine and a Half Mystics, Herbert Weiner, visits the Rebbe: “I believe you can now confess openly that you are an Orthodox Jew, and that you always were an Orthodox Jew even during those years that you were making speeches in a Reform temple.”

Reform Rabbi Herbert Weiner maintained a relationship with the Rebbe over the years, after having interviewed him twice in the 1950s. His interviews with the Rebbe are published in his book Nine and a Half Mystics.
