Is Ohel good or bad?
« on: December 24, 2008, 01:05:20 PM »
   Ohel sent me a postage paid request for a donation. While there are much better causes to donate to such as JTF, VJA and Chabad, the question is whether to stuff the envelope so they have to pay the postage. Are they a leftist self-hating Jewish organization or a decent Jewish charity?

By Ohel you mean the grave site of lubavitch rabbi?

The Academy of Elijah taught, whoever studies the laws (of the Torah) every day, (he) is guaranteed to have a share in the World to Come.

‏119:139 צִמְּתַתְנִי קִנְאָתִי כִּישָׁכְחוּ דְבָרֶיךָ צָרָי
My zeal incenses me, for my adversaries have forgotten Your words.
‏119:141 צָעִיר אָנֹכִי וְנִבְזֶה פִּקֻּדֶיךָ, לֹא שָׁכָחְתִּי.
 I am young and despised; I have not forgotten Your precepts.

" A fool does not realize, and an unwise person does not understand this (i.e. the following:) When the wicked bloom like grass, and the evildoers blossom (i.e. when they seem extremly successful), it is to destroy them forever (i.e. they are rewarded for their few good deeds in this World, and they will have no portion in the World to Come!)

No. The Rebbe's Gravesite is also called Ohel, but the organization named Ohel is not Chabad. Their presence is in New York, New Jersey and South Florida.
