Rabbi Eliyahu Shlomo Ezagui, an international shochet known for traveling to far-flung and remote locations around the world for shechita, has published a new sefer, which he shared with leading rabbonim.

Rabbi Yisroel Eliezer Rubin, longtime shliach to Albany and head shliach of the Capital Region and Northeast New York State, passed away on the night of Shemini Atzeres, shortly after participating in hakafos at his shul.

“Every article misses many points; on a topic like pnimiyus HaTorah, אילו פינו מלא שירה כים would still not suffice. But to say all three missed the point is a strong charge. In this case, the very source he brings, קונטרס עניינה של תורת החסידות, shows otherwise.”

When chassidishe businessman R. Dan Tumarkin spent two years defending the Rebbe Maharash’s chidush in a weighty correspondence with the Kopuster Rebbe, his grasp of Chassidus earned remarkable praise.

Crown Heights Hatzalah warned the community after a young man was hospitalized with meningococcal meningitis, a potentially severe infection that can spread through close and prolonged contact.

How would the Rebbe want us to dance this Simchas Torah? In light of the miraculous rescue in the skies that brought 174 Jews from certain death to life, a newly published sicha illuminates the way.

The Cyprus Jewish community marked an emotional full-circle moment with Mirav Leshem Gonen, mother of captivity survivor Romi Gonen, and Deputy Israeli Ambassador Kobi Waller.

As we prepare to celebrate Simchas Torah with joy and dancing, a special Hakafos Companion is available for anyone who would like to print and distribute copies in their shul or community.
