In heaven the Ministering Angels argued in his behalf in front of Hashem. They said it is known from the Torah that one who sustains a single Jewish soul, it is as if he sustained the entire world. This is the reason why Adom was created alone, to show that each person through his descendents can fill the world. This is also the reason why Hashem rebuked Kayin after he murdered Hevel, "the bloods of your brother are calling out". He used the plural word 'bloods' to imply that Kayin had murdered Hevel and all the descendents that would have come from him. Binyamin Hatzadik had saved a woman and her seven children, the defending Angles demanded to know how he could pass away at such a young age. Their plea was accepted in Heaven and immediately the decree for Binyomin Hatzadik's death was torn and an additional 22 years were added to his life. |

However it is very likely that once the people decide on a Hillula the Tzadik shows up and maybe even that there was divine providence in the decision and they picked a relevant date. | In attempt to capitalize on the city's assets, the municipality of Safed innovated a 'Hillula' on the 28th of Av for Binyamin Hatzadik which coincidentally falls out at the end of the summer during peek [[Safed-Tourism|tourist season]], right before the [[Klezmer Festival Safed|Klezmer Festival]].
