Rabbi Yitzchak Hutner noticed this variation and corresponded about this matter with the Lubavitch Rebbe – See the Yeshurun compilation, Volume 20, pp. 790-793, Note 14].

the Lublin Rebbe Avraham Eiger (1914-2002), son of Rabbi Shlomo Elazar (son of Rebbe Alter Azriel Meir Eiger of Lublin), a humble tsaddik and Chassid, Torah scholar and exceptional genius. Studied at the Chachmei Lublin Yeshiva and during World War II, was exiled with the Amshinov Rebbe’s family to Vilna, Japan and Shanghai. there he stayed together with his companions from the Chachmei Lublin Yeshiva. After the Holocaust, in 1949, he immigrated to Eretz Israel via France. Following the counsel of prominent rebbes (Rebbe Aharon of Belz and the Rayatz of Lubavitch), and of the leading rabbis of his times (the Chazon Ish and the Tshebiner Rav), he succeeded his forefathers as Rebbe of Lublin in the city of Bnei Brak. He studied Torah with great diligence and prayed with much devotion and went to great lengths in his pursuit of charitable acts for the community and for individuals. His son-in-law is the Amshinov Rebbe of Jerusalem.
