The learning for this week’s shiur, Vayeilech &more,  learning should be a zechus for the speedy redemption of:Sholom Mordechai ben Rivka (Rubashkin).Please remember him in your tefillos. Guys please share! The Supreme court will IYH look over appeals on September 24th (day before yom kippur) and decide which cases they will review.�

The supreme court receives 10,000 cases a year, but only reviews 75-80 of them! It’s up to us to spread the case to the whole world (or at least to people we know).�

Asking Forgiveness <- click here for orig. link!

For on this day [Yom Kippur] He shall effect atonement for you to cleanse you. Before G‑d, you shall be cleansed from all your sins—Leviticus16:30. On Yom Kippur, G‑d mercifully erases all the sins we have committed “before G‑d”—but not the sins we may have committed against our fellow man. If we really want to come out of this holy day completely clean, we need to first approach any individual whom we may have wronged and beg their forgiveness. This applies whether the offense was physical, emotional, or financial (in which case, seeking forgiveness is in addition to making appropriate monetary restitution). Just as the offending individual is enjoined to sincerely seek forgiveness, so, too, the victim is expected to wholeheartedly forgive—provided he is assured that the plea for forgiveness is indeed sincere. More Details: It is proper to specify the wrongdoing for which you are seeking forgiveness—unless doing so would cause further embarrassment to the victim. If the injured party refuses to grant forgiveness, the offender should try approaching him several times, each time in the company of a few friends (who can try to convince the victim of the sincerity of the offender’s intentions). If the individual whom you have wronged has since passed away, and the gravesite is in the vicinity, take a minyan to the gravesite and beg forgiveness there. If the gravesite is not in the vicinity, you can appoint someone to go to the grave together with a minyan to ask for forgiveness on your behalf.

Fiddler Raises the Roof

Daniel Ahaviel is one of the Jewish world’s top fiddlers; he’s also our dear friend and spiritual brother. He’s the one who plays the violin on our Judean Dream album. There’s no one who can fiddle and dance like he can. Daniel lives and breathes the joy of serving Hashem. Rebbe Nachman teaches that you can’t make teshuva if you’re not happy, so we need to put smiles on our face before Yom Kippur, and not be sullen like some folks think. And by the way, Yiddishkeit is cool…  

When the prophet noticed the Children of Israel deviating too far from their roots, he urged us, “Return Israel to Hashem, your G-d… return to Hashem” [1]. Why did the prophet see to repeat the fact that we must return to Hashem? In addition, why emphasise that it is Israel who must return: obviously if they are the ones who were sinning it is they that must repent?!

Furthermore, a significant part of the repentance prayers [2] seems to involve expressing that the complete repentance programme is too cumbersome! Are we trying to make things worse for ourselves?!

Amongst the many who were affected by the Tsumani disaster, was a South African Jewish family. The husband was out at sea at the time, whilst his wife, baby and maid were on the beach. The maid was the first to spot the gigantic Tsunami wave and unsuccessfully attempted to attract her employer’s attention. It was too late. He watched helplessly as his family was washed away, whilst he himself managed to grab onto a tree as he was washed ashore.

In the meantime his wife and maid were pressed up against the side of a tall building. They were up to their necks in water and the mother became frantic – she had lost hold of her baby!

In the meantime the maid felt something brush against her leg from the side. Instinctively she picked up this ‘thing’ – it was the baby!

G-d is our Heavenly parent. He wants us – his baby – to return to Him.

This is what the prophet is coming to emphasise:

It is not just about ‘returning to G-d’, but rather that we – the sons of Israel – the children of G-d, return to our Father in heaven.

We do not just simply return to G-d for our own benefit, but rather because just like a parent desires their child to ‘return’ to them, so too our Heavenly Father desires and helps us return to Him. The repentance programme of contemplation, removing oneself from sin, regret and acceptance to improve in the future might all seem daunting, or even ‘against all odds’. But so might reading, writing, walking for the first time or learning how to ride a bike. As long as our teachers want us to learn, then we can indeed succeed to great heights. And so we must remember that it is our Heavenly Father that we are talking about who wants us to return to Him! All we have to do is express our desire to return to Him, appreciate that we will need His help and take the first few steps to return to HimimHimH.

Have by father best Shabbos,

Knuckle Bumping[i] from Gutman locks 

     When I told this Israeli to talk to G-d, he “smacked” his knuckles against the sky as if he was “knuckle bumping” Hashem! I thought that I had seen everything, but this one cracked me up.

What Are You Supposed to Think?

     What are you supposed to think when you see a Jew who looks like this? “Weirdo! Ha! Ha! I wonder where he has been? Oh Boy! Look at that!” …and on and on.

     But you know what? We all have looked like we needed help at sometime in our 

lives. And you know what else? If you will extend yourself, and help even the strangest cases, G-d is going to extend Himself, and help even you. [i] A recent fad type of handshake!

Educational Advice from the Tolna Rebbe Shlita

The Tolna Rebbe Shlita early this morning is speaking to a group of kind people / Chassidim in L.A. for a once in a year inspiration in English.

Nice pictures please click here <-

There’s good news from the Tolna Rebbe who now has a new Shul which still needs some help with the final payments , email umuse613@gmail.com if you can help.  This is all in the Merit of Dovid of Tolna the original Tolna Rebbe whose Yahrzeit is today Netsach Sheb’Netsach, may His merit protect and bless us ! (We didn’t take  pictures or videos of the  Yahrzeit Sudah where the Rebbe as a once in a lifetime requests money for the already bought Shul , give us the merit to build a Shul that will be a light unto the nations, including Lag Bomer) 

The Tolner Rebbe, Rabbi Yitzchok Menachem Weinberg, was a guest at Yeshiva Ohr Elchonon in Los Angeles. COLlive.com presents a recording of his fascinating speech.The Tolner Rebbe of Jerusalem, Rabbi Yitzchok Menachem Weinberg, visited the Yeshiva Ohr Elchonon Chabad in Los Angeles, California, on Monday.He was warmly greeted by “the Rosh” Yeshiva Rabbi Ezra Schochet, the staff and the bochurim and led around to visit the campus on Waring Avenue.The Tolner, an expert in the Rebbe’s teachings and Chassidus Chabad, warned the bochurim about “wasting time.” He said in English, “if you won’t use your Rebbe to be careful with time, then shame on you because you are so close to the big light.”

He added that “being Chabad means one thing: to work, work and work” and that being a Chossid of the Lubavitcher Rebbe comes with a great responsibility.
The Tolner Rebbe’s visit was organized by Reb Zvi Ryzman, R’ Eli Ryzman and R’ Sidney Teichman.

COLlive.com presents an audio recording of the speech and we thank Rabbi Noach Fox for providing it.

The Tolna Rebbe studied in a Bnei akiva yeshiva in Yerushalayim and with the influence of his Zyde he became a Gerer Chosid very close to the Bais Yisroel,Lev Simcha and the Pnei Menachem. He is a gaon in nigle and Chassidus and can relate to people from all walks of life. A true adam gadol! B’H

The Message of the saving our children with Dreidels and The Kaliver Rebbetzin a”h

Please follow ‎Midnightrabbi inspires translates- in short help the youth to survive the challenges of the world today! 

The translation of the Shalosh Seudah Torah
Parshas VAYEISHEV – CHANUKAH is ready on our site. Download at NO COST! click Here

The Message of the Dreidel and Doobie Dreidel

History travels, seemingly aimlessly. Generations come and go. As a wide circle, history repeats itself. Is there an objective? Is the world aiming toward a goal?

On Chanukah we turn the dreidel. The Nun, Gimel, Heh and Shin engraved on the dreidel come and go as it spins. The dreidel seems to be spinning aimlessly. However, the Bnei Yissaschar points out that Nun, Gimel, Heh and Shin are gematria Mashiach (they both equal 358).

It’s true; world history – as symbolized by the dreidel – seems to be spinning aimlessly. However, there is a center point around which it all turns – the world’s redemption through Mashiach.

CHANA AND HER SEVEN SONS!

“INNER LIGHTS OF CHANUKAH” by Chana Katz As we walk down the hillside of Tsfat’s historic Old Cemetery, we approach a mother who is buried along with her seven sons. For some, it may be viewed as one of the greatest stories of martrydom in Jewish history, perhaps even greater than the famous “Akeida” in which our forefather Avraham was all set to sacrifice his only son, Issac. At least that’s the way Chana felt, because as the cruel gentile king ordered the death of her final and youngest son, she requested permission to give him one last mother’s kiss. Granted this permission, she embraced her son and whispered in his ear instructions to be carried out after his soul left his body: “Go to Avraham Avinu,” she said, “and tell him he was told to offer one son –I’ve offered seven sons.” It’s no light story to ponder the pain this mother felt as one by one, her sons refused to bow down as the king demanded, each coming up with his own verse from the Torah to explain why it was more important to sacrifice the mortal body rather than harm the soul’s essential, eternal connection to its source. But something here was more powerful than pain. It was the unfathomable level of happiness this mother felt when her children, on their own strength and desire, were willing to give up their very lives in order to cleave to G-d. Perhaps that is why, after the last of her seven sons was tortuously killed, she went to the roof and jumped to her own death, and, as the story is related in the Gemara, a heavenly voice called out that she’s an ”Eim Simaicha“ (a joyful mother). Still, it’s a hard story to grasp. And in her final resting place – by Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh In fact, if one never looked at Chanukah in another vein besides the miracle of the oil and the brave battle of Judah the Maccabee, this tape will draw a direct connection between Chana and Chanu-kah! Ginsburgh goes as far as to say that perhaps the story of Chana and her sons who refused to bow to Antiochus is the very basis of this weeklong celebration of one of the Jewish people’s greatest victories and why the last day of Chanukah, known as “Zot Chanukah” uses the feminine word “Zot.” Each candle, Ginsburgh says, serves as the “ner neshama” for Chana and her seven sons. SEVEN TIMES NO, A THOUSAND TIMES NO! According to the Gemara volume “Gittin“, the king asked each son to bow down to an idol. Each son, starting from the oldest to eventually the youngest, refused, each quoting a different passage from the Torah. The first son quoted the first commandment, “How can I bow down?” he asked, “when it says in the Torah, “I am the L-rd your G-d.’ “ The second son stated the commandment: “You shall have no other gods beside Me.” Said the third: “How can I? Whoever sacrifices to a foreign god will be wiped out of the Jewish people.” Quoted the fourth son: “You shall not bow down to other gods.” The fifth son quoted the “Shma” – “Hear O Israel, the L-rd G-d, the L-rd is One.” The sixth son explained: “You shall teach today your heart that Hashem is the only G-d in the heavens and earth and there is no other.” Finally, the merciless king turned to the seventh and youngest son who quoted the longest passage: “We have sworn to Hashem not to change Him for any other god and G-d has sworn to us not to exchange us for any other people.” The king was taken aback. This boy was the youngest, yet the most clever – and also willing to give his life. Nonetheless, the king tried to deceive him: “I’ll throw my ring down,” he said, “and so people won’t ridicule me it will look like you’re bowing down but really you’ll only be picking up the ring.” No luck, Antiochus. The brave lad said, “If your honor as a human being of flesh and blood is so important, than how much more so is the honor of the King!” CONTINUING TO THE BURIAL SITE Flashing in time through the years to our generation, bound by cumulative merit yet set back by incomprehensible capitulations and compromises, whatever feelings one carries to Chana and her Seven Sons, they must certainly include awe and admiration. The most direct approach to Chana is to take HaAri Street as far as one can go, which will take you past the top of Old Cemetery until a flight of steps leading down the side of the mountain to the famous Ari Mikveh and to a path that will go directly to the entrance of Chana’s cave. The other path to Chana is more winding and longer, but it will offer the chance to stop by the resting sites of the Holy Ari (Rabbi Issac Luria), Rav Moshe Cordovera, R. Shlomo Alkabetz and other great Torah figures. The entrance itself is not very high, perhaps only four-feet at most. In fact, the entire cave ceiling itself is very-low lying. It is quiet and dark inside but the just like the story itself, the illumination burns bright when it is viewed in its spiritual light. “Chana and her Seven Sons sacrificed their lives on earth to establish and reveal to the eyes of the entire world the essential bond of the Jewish soul to eternal life, unbounded by the limitations of time and space… to illuminate the darkness of the world around” proclaims Rav Ginsburgh in his final words on the tape. Now, it doesn’t really seem so dark in here, does it? [Chana Katz, a former South FLorida journalist, lives in Tsfat. Her articles on life in Israel have reached publications throughout the world.] The Kaliver Rebbetzin a”h A dedication to her! It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Rebbetzin Chana Sara Shifra Taub a”h, the Kaliver Rebbetzin, wife of the Kaliver Rebbe of Eretz Yisroel. She was 94. The Rebbetzin passed away this afternoon at Shaarei Tzedek Medical Center in Yerushalayim. She had suffered from serious illness in recent years. She was a daughter of Rav Pinchas Shapiro of Kechnia and was a descendant of Rav Meir Premishlaner. The Rebbetzin was a true ishah chashuvah, who, with humility, aidelkeit and grace, served as a right hand to her husband in his avodas hakodesh. The Rebbetzin would encourage her husband to engage in activities that bring estranged Jews closer to their Father in Shomayim, stating that while she didn’t merit to have biological children in this world, “at least we will have children in Olam Haba.” The levaya is being held this evening at the Kaliver Bais Medrash on Rechov Chana, followed by kevurah on Har Hazeisim. Yehi zichrah boruch.
