In the Shuls of the Rabbeim of the many Chassidusim they mark the Purim Tish with an amusing show, with the Rebbes and their Chassidim in attendance. At the Tish of one of the branches of Satmar Chassidim they choose to display a show with particularly bad taste, with one of the Chassidim getting up – before the Rebbe – imitating and mocking the Lubavitcher Rebbe.

In yet another twist, a third Beis Din just weighed in on the Rabbanite dispute in Crown Heights at the request of the Vaad Hakohol chairman Zaki Tamir, and his ruling states that a second Beis Din has no right to mix in. This ruling would seemingly clear the way for Rabbi Yosef Braun to take up his position on the Crown Heights Beis Din.

The Elusive Pursuit of Spirituality – the “I” Un-capitalized

by Rabbi Yoseph Kahanov Jax. Fl.

Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi, a student of the great Maggid of Mezritch, once knocked on the Maggid’s door to ask a Talmudic question that perplexed him.

“Who is it?” Asked the Maggid.

“It is I,” Reb Shneur Zalman responded.

“Come in, Zalmanu,” the Maggid said, recognizing the voice. After satisfactorily resolving R’ Shneur Zalman’s question, the Maggid unexpectedly said, “Good-bye, Zalmanu. Have a good journey.”
