Picture of the Day
A Litvisher was seen this week doing Lubavitch Mivtzoim, helping another Jew put on Tefillin outside the 770 building on Pico Blvd. in Los Angeles. More

go us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol 7th graders
not the 770 building
i could not agree more.
Why does it matter who it is and what he is doing? The point of the matter is that one Jew is helping another Jew and bringing him closer in Yiddishkeit. Who cares if he is Lubavitch or Litvish, who cares if it’s kiruv or mivtzoim. Either way there is one more Jew in the world that put tefillin on that day. I can’t speak for the Rebbe and I am not saying that I am but do you think the Rebbe cares how it’s done, as long as it’s done. The Rebbe wanted all the yidden to be “exposed”… Read more »
omg i knew my skl rocks
I was going to write a whole diverse and complicated comment explaining the significance of “Hafatza/Mivtzoim” over what they call “kiruv” but thanks to your simple yet profound words I feel no need to add any explanation. Kol Hakavod! 🙂
The Rebbe said that they will do it too soon, and that we should spread it even not in the Rebbe’s name if that is how we will better reach people- BH it’s happening!
LA ROCKS
upon reading your remarks; it has become quite clear to me that you yourself isn’t “a chasid from the rebbe” (i use this term in order not to violate your rules), and the reason why i am saying this is: (aside from the gist of what your saying, but mainly) from the actual terminology that your using; the word “kiruv” is a word that the rebbe didn’t use, and held strong against of, for reasons that are quits obvious to thou whom thinks into it, and that you have chosen to use the term “monopoly” is quite humorous; because thats… Read more »
oh great..i was actually sitting in class today and this girl who kind of makes anti Chabad comments to me told me her chosson is VERY into kiruv and then somene piped up is he chasssidish? and she laughed sarcastically and was like noooo NOT a chossid (as if it was a bad thing).
and to 4..because of things like this that happen certain people NEED to be reminded who started this idea in the fist place..
MOSHIACH NOW
it’s not about claiming monopoly..it’s about us beginning a new era and wave of religious Jews and being proud out Rebbe started that! BH everyone is contributing and making this world a better place but our Rebbe definitely needs to stay recognized and we should be proud!
go la
go bais chaya mushka!!
looks like a lubav
It’s not a matter of labels. It’s a matter of happy irony–they screamed against mivtza tefillin when the Rebbe instituted it! It’s wonderful to see the total v’ne’hapoch hu!
to #4
“kiruv” ???? obviusly you are a misnaged
Lubavitchers did it because the Rebbe said to. It took a lot of lomdus to convince the others it was even kosher.
There are no labels. Just facts.
In fact you are correct when you say “And we do not (and should not) claim a monopoly on kiruv”, no lubavitcher does kiruv. We do what is called HaFatzah, we don’t think we are any closer to G-D then anyone else. And on this concept WE and only we have the monopoly. The Rebbe clearly said that the term Kiruv Rachokim is wrong and borders the opposite of Halach.
Very nice!
Good job my man!
moshiach tzeitin!!!!
“Litvisher” doing “Lubavitcher” mivtzoim?
No need for labels. And we do not (and should not) claim a monopoly on kiruv.
the Frediker Rebbe said this would happen. And then THEY will claim the credit for themselves.
