The Coloradoan
Ft. Collins, CO — Some residents are upset by a white supremacist recruitment flier that was delivered last month in an east Fort Collins neighborhood.

The recruitment flier, produced by the Nationalist Coalition, named Rabbi Yerachmiel Gorelik of the Chabad Jewish Center of Northern Colorado and was distributed Dec. 19 in the Parkwood East neighborhood.

One question on the flier asked whether Gorelik should be allowed to display the menorah in Old Town.

“It was in my driveway,” Parkwood East resident Ralph Smith said. “I thought it was a little newspaper.”

Shneur Jacobs 8 of Burlington, VT at the Online School for Young Shluchim

Ithaca, NY — Chabad Shluchim living in remote places or cities where there is no Jewish school, have long contended with schooling their children at home or parting with them at young ages, so they can get a traditional education. A newly developed online school now gives these children the benefit of a classroom situation where they daily interact with classmates–children of other shluchim, and a teacher, at home.

The Rebbe says:

1. This weeks Parshah tells us about the beginning of the redemption from our Exile in Egypt. Seven of the Ten Plagues are mentioned in this week’s Parshah, and the Ten Plagues were what caused Pharaoh to let the Jews leave Egypt (actually at the end of the tenth plague Pharaoh chased the Jews out of Egypt).

2. As we said many times, every story in the Torah is written for us to learn a lesson from.

Seemingly the Torah should be called “Chochmah – Wisdom” because the Torah is the wisdom of Hashem? Instead Hashem named the Torah “Torah” which comes from the word “Ho’ra’ah – lesson”. This is because the Torah is deeper then just having great wisdom, it is a guide book for us as to how we should conduct our daily lives in the service of Hashem.
