Boruch Dayan Ho’emes: Reb Zushe Rivkin OBM

With sadness we inform you of the passing of Reb Zushe Rivkin OBM, of Kfar Chabad, at the age of 82. Rabbi Rivkin was active as a dedicated Chossid of the Rebbe, and would especially put much effort into helping people do Mivtza Tzedaka. Every day on his way to work in Tel Aviv, he would walk through the train and offer people a coin and a pushka, giving them the oppertunity to fulfill the mitzvah.

A group of Lubavitcher bochurim in Israel took it upon themselves to bring the joy of Purim to IDF soldiers. In the Jordan valley, a group of soldiers came down from their tank and sat around the bochurim to hear the Megilah. Afterwards, they fulfilled the Mitzvah of Mishloach Manos, followed by joyous singing and dancing.

Lessons in Education: When to Punish?

In the next piece on “responsibility” Rabbi Nochum Kaplan will discuss some of the basics of setting rules: they must be clear and unambiguous, they must be consistent and the consequences for breaking them must be clear and sure, among others. It is also our responsibility to help our children understand that consequences are the direct result of their own actions; they are not the result of our frustrations but of their poor choice.
