Videos: The Rebbe and 17 Tammuz

In honor of the 17th of Tammuz, JEM has assembled a collection of clips featuring the Rebbe observing the fast and discussing the meaning of the day.

One of the purposes of a fast day is to take inspiration from the events it commemorates, and reflect on bettering our own selves and behavior. One of the minhagim of a fast day is to listen to Divrei Kivushim, “words that capture (the heart)”, to take inspiration from the events the fast commemorates and reflect on them to better ourselves.
