BROOKLYN, NY [CHI] — “In Chabad nothing changed,” said the former President of Israel Zalman Shazar to a reporter the morning following of his two audiences and participation in the Chassidic gathering with the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of righteous memory, “they greeted me with the same parade and the same love as when I was president.”

Shazar said this in contrast to the way others had greeted the former president since he stepped down from his presidency. “In most places he has already been forgotten,” wrote the paper, “he is already not the President.”

“The true friends,” said Shazar, “did not stop coming and conferring with me.”

Amid Beijing’s Boom, a Jewish Community Blooms

Dan Levin – Forward

BEIJING, China — The Chabad House here sits at the end of a quiet street in an upscale gated community just inside this city’s Fourth Ring road and down the block from the Israeli Embassy. A caged duck and a stroller guard the entrance, as does a small army of young Chinese men who patrol the neighborhood of gaudy McMansions.

The Rebbe says:

1. This week’s Torah portion discusses how the Land of Israel should be divided up between all the Twelve Tribes,.

2. The Rebbe now asks the first of two questions regarding this:

We find two contradictory instructions regarding the division of the Land of Israel. On one hand the Torah tells us that the land shall be split up logically, as the verse states, “To the many you shall increase its inheritance and to the few shall you decrease its inheritance”. However on the other hand we find that the Torah tells us to split the land according to a lottery which is above logic and reason, as the verse states, “This is the land which you shall divide by inheritance as a lottery”.
