Weekly Story: Mishloach Monos with a Message

When the summer was over, the Bochur remained in Russia for a while, helping the local Shluchim. One day, he went to the governmental offices and obtained a copy of his father’s prison records. He was so proud of what his father accomplished as a young man. If only half of the accusations were true, that showed how much his father did to save other chassidim and spread yiddishkeit. However, he was shocked and indeed horrified when he saw that one of the main informers against his father was none other than this person that his father would send Mishloach Monos to every Purim.

Letter & Spirit: ‘Genocide’ Against Amalek

In this week’s edition of Letter and Spirit, we present a letter from the Rebbe in which he convincingly explains how a compassionate G-d can mandate a seemingly “inhumane” law – to annihilate an entire nation, Amalek. The letter was written in English through the Rebbe’s trusted secretary Rabbi Nissan Mindel, and was made available by the latter’s son-in-law, Rabbi Sholom Ber Shapiro.

The Sound of Megillah Readings to Fill Jerusalem as Part of ‘Azza Zaza’

When Rabbi Yisroel and Shoshana (“Shoshi”) Goldberg first arrived in the upscale Jerusalem neighborhood of Rechavia six years ago, they operated out of synagogues and held classes in private homes whose owners were only too happy to welcome them. But being without a physical center did not stop the couple from taking to the streets and starting what has turned into their own special brand of public Purim celebration, to which they gave the moniker “Azza Zaza.”
