This unique bounce-house for children to enjoy this Chol Hamoed was spotted in Israel by a CrownHeights.info reader.
A Lubavitcher Chosid in Israel found a creative and fun way to bring the Mitzvos of Sukkah and Daled Minim to his fellow Jews on the streets.
All lanes of the upper level of the Brooklyn-bound side of the Verrazano Bridge were blocked Monday night, causing traffic delays. Included in the jam, which stretched for almost five miles, was a sukka mobile returning from a day of mivtzoim in the Staten Island area. The vehicle sat idle, but the Bochurim that were on it did not.

Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz, director of Chabad Lubavitch of Southwest Florida, delivers his insights on the weekly Parsha — this week with two videos, one for Parshas Vezos Habracha, and one for Bereishis. This week Rabbi Minkowicz answers the questions: what gift did Moshe Rabeinu give to us all? and what is the key to enjoy studying Torah?
