Did you say the ‘Nasi’ Today? (Yom Gimmel)

From the Safer Haminhagim: [Every day from Rosh Chodesh Nissan until the twelfth of the month, usually after Shacharis,] one reads the passage [from Bamidbar 7-8:4] that describes the offering brought on that day by a particular Nasi, or tribal prince, for the dedication of the altar of the Mishkan. [In common parlance, each day’s passage itself is often referred to as “the Nasi.”] This daily reading is followed by the prayer which opens with the words yehi ratzon (and which appears in Siddur Torah Or [as well as in Siddur Tehillat HaShem, p. 371]). This prayer is recited even by a Kohen or a Levi [despite its seeming relevance only to tribes other than the Tribe of Levi]. [284]

A Moving Letter From an IDF Widow

Yom Kippur, 1973. Israel was suddenly attacked in the most devastating way. In the dramatic battle with Egyptian forces, many lives were lost. Following the war the Rebbe sent letters of encouragement to the wounded and to the families of the departed. A young mother whose husband perished in the war wrote to the Rebbe, asking: How can she explain this tragedy to her children? What words of comfort can she give them?

The Avner Institute would like to present this moving letter, courtesy of Rabbi Sholom Dovber Levin, chief librarian of Agudas Chasidei Chabad of Brooklyn. To learn more about the Rebbe visit: www.portraitofaleader.org

by Dovid Zaklikowski – TheRebbe.org

Rabbi Binyomin Levin, extreme right, with the choir that the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of righteous memory, instructed him to organize.
