Darchai Menachem Buys Building!

Gimmel Tammuz is an emotional day for most Lubavitchers.

The new building is, in the words of school Principal and director Rabbi Eyal Bension, “exactly what the students deserve.”

If you didn’t know that the Torah had a sense of humor, you probably missed the narrative at the center of this week’s Parsha – the legendary tale of two highly influential leaders, Balak and Bilaam who rapidly slipped from grace and glory into the depth of shame and depravity.
