    instead of trimming your beard and letting your hair grow, a “rabbi” should be doing the opposite. i think we need to address this issue, not just tznius.

  • yanky

    Are you a Chabadnik? I wonder, because your “mussar” doesn’t belong here. How about a big MAZAL TOV and yasher koach to Rabbi Aron Lieberman and the entire Inverrary community!

  • dovid shapiro

    mazel tov, chaim tzvi bortunk for a big milestone in your life ! May you continue to always bring much Nachas to your very special parents- dovid and pearl shapiro

  • the clan :)

    mazel tov chaimke antian! oh excuse me!!!! RABBI chaim antian! kol hakavod! we are all proud of you!

    i love how the second someone tells you something is wrong it becomes “mussar” how about agreeing there is a problem and try to work on a solution. and yes “chabadniks” don’t trim their beards. at least not frum ones. mazel tov to all the bochurim on all your hard work but i don’t think they should be calling themselves “chabad rabbis”

  • U-shmartem L-nafshosechem

    How about some musser for the pack of Parliment ciggerettes?!

  • Rabbi yigal rosenberg

    Mazall tov, Tomer,M Werde,Chaim & yossi! you all make me soo proud. these are! the poster children of the chabad movement, get used to it putz!

  • Are we serious???

    This is such a sad debate that we are wasting our time with. Lets assume the best of these bochurim. What if this boy cannot grow a beard it look pretty patchy not trimmed to me,my husband has a very short beard he never trims it just won’t grow.What if this bochur is very embarrassed about his beard and now you have made him feel worse. I could go on and on. Lets have some Ahavas Yisroel and just wish them a huge MAZEL TOV!!!!!

  • great job!

    Mazel Tov!!! very well done.keep up the great work!
    Are we serious??? IS RIGHT!!!!!!!!
    you guys are such fools!Look at the positive…why always
    something bad has to be said!? (just because your from california isnt so much better…i can go on and on about that place…just keep your mouth shut!)
