The Victory,The Legal Team,The Testimony – Marking 25 Years

Both parties at the bank when the Seforim were returned to the Aguch library

This Shabbos marks 25 years of “Hey Teves,” the victory in which a Brooklyn Federal Judge gave ruling that all books that were taken from the Previous Rebbe’s library Agudas Chassdei Chabad be returned. CrownHeights.info and the Avner Institute would like to present historic moments of this case, including the first, strategic meeting between the Rebbe and his legal team; cross-examination with Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka, of blessed memory; and Nobel Prize winner Eli Wiesel’s testimony on behalf of the Rebbe.

Chicago Tribune

Rabbi Dovid Flinkenstein lights the menorah outside Chabad of Wilmette, 2904 Old Glenview Road. The congregation is planning to replace the four-unit storefront with a synagogue.

Approaching their 20th anniversary, Chabad of Wilmette members hope to someday be able to walk from their social room to the sanctuary without having to step outside.
