    It’s very different and just another white space where Yechi is written. I have no problem with it. As long as this individual is peace loving and chassidic.

  • Mordechai Yosef

    They Got Serious Issues. Need Help Yes the Rebbe is Melech HaMoshiach & will take us 2 Yerushalayim no question about it. However this is a little 2 much & all it does is embaress Lubavitch World Wide. This 4 sure is a result from Tzfat. However I spoke 2 the Rosh Yeshiva of Tzfat Rav Yosef Wilchanski, he told me that they don’t promote this kind of behavior how they behave in 770. 4 sure the Rosh Yeshiva & the Rabbanim in the Yeshiva don’t act that way. They take it out of hand. But there is nothing u could do its a free world any1 could do what they want. However @ the same time it don’t make us look good. Where is this pic taken & how did u get it. This is so sad 2 c. But thank u 4 sharing.

  • NoYechi770InJerusalem

    This isn’t new Moti Finati from Florida has been selling these for years with a picture of a Winnebago on it.

  • Leave them be

    Let them do whatever they want. Its a free world. Making a big deal of it, just encourages it more.

  • They go lower and lower

    Check the guy’s tefillin – the slogan is probably there too.

    How about Yechi underwear for “true believers’?

    How about stamped in ink on their hands and foreheads?

    Heck, they are so far gone that I wouldn’t put actual tattoos past them (even if it is a clear violation of Torah, what do they care? For this they permit everything).

  • mas

    The person knows nothing and needs “open eye” guidance. and ein mevihin raya from fools.

    This should not have been posted, in the same sense that we don’t post pix of hospital patients

  • sad

    ITS going to go much further if people dont stand up to it chabad will not be able to uphold the silent policy

  • CHILUL SHEM LUBAVITCH

    somehow everyone has to know that THIS IS NOT CHABAD.

    CHILUL SHEM LUBAVITCH

  • whats the big deal?

    whats the difference if you have yechi on your yarmulke or your tallis? people have all kinds of holy words on their tallis i dont see anything wrong with this

    stop making a big deal and fun out of people’s faith

  • a boosha a cherpa

    how low have we sunk

    we need aguch to issue a statement signed by all aguch members to remove anyone that claims this is normal behavior

    and not allow dollars to be given out

    and maybe for the future of lubavitch as we know it
    \a normalacy test

  • Regular Person

    So it’s not normal to write a poem on your wool sheet, but it’s normal to have a wool sheet that you wear every morning over your cow skin with poems inside as you tell god how many ways you are a sinner and should be killed?
    You guys need to check yourselves a bit… And quit blaming this website for posting things you don’t like; you guys can’t agree on anything, so stop trying to shut down any kind of information center. At least you have this one; albeit it’s completely closed-off.

  • nauseous

    First of all… Why do you put up a post that you know will cause mor loshon hara, more sina and more machlokes> Sad thing.. all those guys writing those horrible comments,,, They are the lowest…cut beards,,,movies and kol dovor assur,,, But they are against yechi,,,, stomach turning. And your website should be ashamed of urself.

  • question for you

    no. 14….u write chillul shem lubavitch. Dont see you writing shaving beards and machlokes is chilllul shem Lubavich…

  • i dont understans

    why does everybody here care?
    something tells me that this guy doesn’t go around telling all of you what to do, so why are you all telling him what to do???

  • FOR #8 A BOCA RATON RESIDENT

    FOR # 8 THIS IS FALSE AND YOU SHOULD NOT SAY SOMETHING TILL YOU ACTUALLY CHECK IT TO THE SOURCE, I HAVE BIN LIVING AROUND HIM AND I BUY ALL MY JUDAICA STUFF FOR EVERY HOLIDAY AND THERE IS NO SUCH A THING HE DOES NOT HAVE ONE HIMSELF AND NO ONE IN HIS SYNAGOGUE HAVE IT WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS JUST “MACHLOKES” AND THERE IS NO NEED TO PUBLISH SUCH A THING AND THE FACT THAT YOU PUT SUCH A COMMENT JUST SHOWS HOW MUCH YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE

  • Nuts

    Looks Arab to me.

    If I cant wear Tefillin between my eyes so I do not look like I have an idol, I imagine this look looks ARABIC!!!

  • Yechi Tsfas

    It is well known that Moshiach will first appear in TSFAS (WHETHER CH INFO OR YOEL AGREES OR NOT) That is because they seem to be the only ones ready at this time.

  • Thank you for sharing

    Beautiful !!!

    Are they in sale in CH yet.

    Put me on the order list- before they run out

  • Shimon Shak

    This is Awesome!! I’m about to get married and I want one!!!! I don’t know if my Kallah would approve though :)

  • synic

    he needs a faher, to see if he knows more or less about Torah than he knows about Yechi.

  • MASPEAK

    This is not giving the Rebbe nachas.
    This extremist stuff is too much and it takes away from any credibility chabad has left.
    ITS ENOUGH ALREADY!

  • Ban him

    He shouldn’t count in a minyan or be given an Aliya, not even on Yud Shvat, he won’t want one Gimel Tammuz so that’s OK.

  • DaasTorah

    He’s a very sick individual. I hope he seeks immediate psychiatric treatment.

  • NoYechi770InJerusalem

    # 25 It is true I saw it myself him & Gidon Duok both had one they wore them in the real Chabad House of Rabbi Lieberman before they broke away & statrted that Chilul Hashem across the street.
    If anybody made machlokes it is Mr. Finati & his his oisvorfen by nearly destroying Rabbi Lieberman’s shul/bais Chabad.
    FYI.Moti Finat is a sarev ldin FYI,how can you buy anything from him.
    And don’t say that is a lie I saw a copy of the ksav siruv & it is available from Rabbi Lieberman & I gave a copy 8 years ago to Yisroel Shemtov.

  • Ephraim Grushnit

    It saddens me to see there is just no end to this messianist craze.
    If the aguch does not protest the meshichist outrage then apparently it condones it. In which case all that remains is to wave Chabad goodbye: Chabad is on its way out from Judaism and from the Jewish people. Too bad… :(

  • Moish

    Someone asked why post this?

    Why Not? We need a daily laugh don’t we?

    Overall this whole “new” movement is a big joke.

    Most mainstream chabad abhore this bahavior.

    It totally goes against what the Rebbe wanted – and no need to elaborate how you took one sentences or event and diced it into 957 pieces to come up with a rational explanation for this neurotic behavior.

    And yes, when one sees this anamoly (sson to be widespread in 770 I bet) you WILL get comments similar to I wonder what he emblazoned on his briefs!

    Shame on the elter chassidim for pushing their own warped agenda since and before Gimmel Taamuz.

  • The Rebbe-s words...

    The Rebbe’s words on MULTIPLE OCCASIONS to SD Wolpo, the main leader in Moshichist theology, were that his activities in this field is a “WAR AGAINST ME PERSONALLY” The Rebbe in 5752(!) threatened to walk out of 770 after Yechi.

    Read below and ask yourself whether a chassid of the Rebbe can utter those words. This is after years of Writing to Volpo telling him to stop and he ignored the rebbe. (Please don’t tell me that the Rebbe’s encouragement of singing undoes all his written demands, pleads and requests from a few years prior):

    לשד“ב וולפא אייר תשמ”ט

    לטלפנו בשמי:
    כנראה עושה עצמו אינו מבין מה שעניתי מאז, שאפשר להזיק כמה רח“ל לחב”ד ולהפצת המעיינות על-ידי כתיבה בעניין כו’ – שכוונתי היתה בעיקר אליו, וד“ל.

    והנני מזהירו שיפסיק לדבר או לכתוב ועאכו”כ להפיץ ועאכו“כ להדפיס בעניני משיח – הן בשמו והן בשם אחר על-ידי שליח וכיו”ב – או באיזה קובץ שיהי’ ובאיזה סגנון ואופן שיהי’. ואם ח“ו יעשה משהו בזה, ידע ברור שזהו מלחמה נגדי בפרט ובכלל.

    פשוט שהנ”ל כולל פירוש על עניני משיח שברמב“ם או ספרים אחרים ומאמרי דא”ח וכל כיו”ב.

  • jj

    next they will have their own mohel who carves “yechi” into the baby during the bris

  • shoshana

    love it… seriously move on and stop worrying what someone has on his tallis and work on yourselves… must be a slow news day in Crown Heights

  • Too Sane

    Crown Heights Info is right in exposing this kind of apostasy whenever they find it. We would not tolerate a Yid bowing down before an idol, and we would publish photos of such because it is such an offense. This is no different.

  • Schizo?

    Comment #20 seems to be a Schizo.

    Or maybe he only has issues with “Loshon Hora” and “Machlokes” when it’s related to Meshichistim. He seems fine with talking Loshon Hora and hate against the “all those guys writing those horrible comments,,, They are the lowest…cut beards,,,movies and kol dovor assur,,,”

    I’m also amazed at how he somehow knows whose writing these comments.

  • Go-ds right hand man

    Yup Elvis lived to forty two !
    Levis should be the karnay hod of Torah lolam vaed !
    So Torah the guide to how we see the world !
    Rock and roll at the tzemach tzedeck the highest Shul in holy town !

    Hevel havalim can be anywhere
    Yet proclaiming long live the king doesn’t seem like a Jewish thing to do !
    Go figure, it must be the many levels of “shabbos” /malchus drivin’ the world crazy !

  • yechi boxers

    Does the yechi or the hamelech go on the front of the boxer? And are the other options than yellow base with blue lettering?

  • The Rebbe-s words... in English

    Since #42’s comment didn’t come out properly, here is a translation, as best as I could manage:

    To ShD”B Volpo
    Iyar 5749

    Telephone him in my name:

    It seems that he pretends to not understand what I have previously replied, that there can be caused great damage, G-d forbid, to Chabad and to Hafotzas Hamaayanos, through writing about this, etc.–that I mainly was referring to him. This should be sufficient for those who understand.

    I hereby warn him that he should stop speaking, writing, and most certainly publishing about Moshiach topics–whether in his own name, or in someone else’s name through an agent or the like–or in any journal whatsoever, in any style or any way whatsoever. Should he, G-d forbid, do anything in this regard, let him understand clearly that this is a war against me specifically and generally.

    It is obvious that the above includes commentaries on the Moshiach topics in Rambam or any other Seforim, or Maamarim of Chassidus, or anything similar.

  • where-s the picture that fits the title?

    When you wrote, “How far have they gone now” I was expecting some real breach in tznius. I think that the tznius arena is the real issue not in making machlokes over a tallis. There are those who no longer wear talleisim or tefillin and there wives…

  • Internet Genius

    Slow news day? Or is freedom of speech reserved only for those who agree with you. Make sure Mr. Editor that you finished your Chitas and Rambam (3 prokim!) and then think about whether or not there needs to be a filter here. Apparently, having a website makes a person a genius. You’re also causing damage. Him among yechidim, you among a rabim. There’s an old IBM slogan: “THINK”.
