What Came First, the Torah or Bnei Yisroel?


In this week’s “Opening the week with the Rebbe“: We are presenting a sicha from 24 Teves, 5741. The Rebbe refers to what the Midrash asks:”The Torah and Bnei Yisroel predate creation of the world, which was created first?”. From the weekly video magazine, ‘Living Torah’. Courtesy of JEM.

A Moving Letter From a U.S. Army Chaplain

A chief U.S. chaplain from the Department of the Army, Washington DC, writes to the Rebbe of his challenging work with interfaith colleagues.

The Avner Institute presents a fascinating exchange of letters between the chaplain, who describes his success among Jews and non-Jews alike, and the Rebbe who, greatly impressed, write backs, encouraging the Seven Noachide Laws, the responsibility of the Jews, and respect for all individuals, both the “Children of Israel” and “Children of Noach.” With special thanks to Rabbi Reuven Leigh, Director of Chabad of Cambridge, for the letters.
