A Rebbe Does Not Depart

Today is the anniversary of the passing of my revered father-in-law, the sixth Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, on 10 Shevat, 5710 (1950). It is an appropriate time to view this 40-year period in a larger perspective.

Individual, but Universal, Guidance

The most important guidance is stated clearly in G-d Almighty’s Torah: “If you will follow My statutes, if you will go in the way of My Mitzvos, then I will bless you in all your needs.”

Parade of Good
Lag B’omer, 5750 • May 13, 1990
Torah instructs Jewish children: If you see another person who is in need, whether spiritually or physically, reach out to him with love and help him get free of his predicament. Then proceed together, growing from each other’s successes.

Consolation After the Sacrifice
20 Menachem Av, 5742 • August 9, 1982
In Kfar Chabad, there will soon begin the Bar Mitzvah celebration for the orphans of Israel’s fallen heroes. They commemorate their sacrifice, for their fathers gave their lives defending the Holy Land and its Holy Nation.

Stand Tall
6 Nissan, 5750 • April 1, 1990
In Hebrew, “Israel” is an acronym for “Li Rosh – To Me, a head.” This means to say that every Jew must be a “head”, standing tall and strong in all matters of Judaism, Torah and Mitzvos. Then the Torah will be complete, the Land of Israel will be complete and the Jewish People will be complete.
