Israir Welcomes the Sky-Torah

Amidst great joy and celebration, hundreds of people gathered at JFK International Airport in New York today to welcome a new Torah scroll.

Israir’s new Torah, called the Sky-Torah, was greeted under a “Chuppah”- a traditional Jewish wedding canopy, and was carried amidst throngs of children joyously dancing to live music. Children and adults alike were delighted to touch and kiss the new Sefer Torah, as it was lovingly transported on its way to Israel.

The Rebbe says:

1. Towards the end of this week’s Parshah the Torah tells us about Ya’akov Avinu (our father) traveling down to Egypt to see his son Yoseph.

Before Ya’akov Avinu went down to Egypt he sent his son Yehuda ahead of him. Rashi (Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki) tells us- in the name of the Medrash- that the reason Ya’akov Avinu sent his son Yehuda ahead of him was so that Yehuda could set up a Yeshiva (a study-hall to learn Torah in) there first. Ya’akov Avinu did not want to go to a land that did not have a Yeshiva ready. (See Rashi to Verse 28, Chapter 46).
