Rabbi Chaim Miller wrote a Chumash with a translation that incorporates Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson's “novel interpretation” of Rashi's commentary, which was delivered in a series of public talks that began in 1964 and continued for more than 25 years. The translation, called “The Gutnick Edition Chumash”, published in a bilingual Hebrew-English edition that includes a running commentary anthologized from classic rabbinic texts.

Rabbis of the Outback Down Under

Two Chabad rabbis, Izzy Rudolph and Berel Fine, understand that sometimes a person has to go far to bring others close. The Rabbis are part of Chabad of RARA, a Melbourne-based organization that sends out tens of pairs of Rabbis every year to the furthest points of Australia, places that don’t have enough Jews to support a full time Rabbi.

Merkos Shlichus: Shabbos in Zhmerynka

ZHMERYNKA, Ukrain — In every place on Merkos Shlichus, one of the best things to do, is to make a get-together of all the local Jews. This we did, in Zhmerynka, Ukraine. It was last Friday, where we stood for hours in a tiny kitchen in the local Shule cooking food, with the meager kosher ingredients available in this part of the world. We were told to cook for, “Fertzig menschen” (“Forty people”), and thus we pealed 10lbs of potatoes (and did much more).
