COLlive.com presents Shabbos Night Live, a weekly web class with Torah thought, chassidic stories and timely inspiration.
Presented by Rabbi Shmuel Butman, Executive Director of the Central Lubavitch Youth Organization (Tzach Hamerkazis) and a long-time columnist and radio broadcaster.
This week: The distinct “chidush” of the Rebbe concerning Hakhel.
Weekly story of the Rebbe: A bochur wrote a ‘pan’ note to the Rebbe, but something was wrong…
I think the Rebbe focused on Hakhel because of the Achdus and Yiras Shomayim it represents, and also the fact that The Rebbe is our Melech and the king used to read. The Rebbe wants us to celebrate Hakhel so that Hashem sends us Melech Hamoshiach to read the Torah in the Beis HaMikdosh for Hakhel.
Harav Butman – may he be well, in his inimitable manner inspires us once again with words of Torah & Chassidus encouraging us all to hep bring MOSHIACH as our REBBE encouraged. This was a beautiful segment and I look forward to hearing more. Shavuah Tov and Gmar Chasima Tova
