Op-Ed: Tell the World That There’s a Rebbe!

Zoom

Rabbi Gershon Avtzon: We find ourselves in the days between two significant dates on the Chassidishe calendar — 28 Sivan, the 85th anniversary of the Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach and Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka’s miraculous arrival to America, and Gimmel Tammuz. These are not simply dates on a calendar.

Rambam In-Depth: The King’s Table Secret That Explains Why Even Kohanim Can’t Eat Tevel!

2 | Slideshow

This is not just dry halachah. This is Rambam at his philosophical best: revealing the inner spiritual mechanics behind the mitzvah and answering a question that has bothered learners for centuries • Read More, Watch
