R’ Nachman’s Tallis

Posted on January 28, 2017 by Emuna Daily

R’ Nachman of Breslov zt”l once gave his old tallis to one of his close students.  “Show this tallis a lot of respect,” he said.  “For as many threads as there are in this cloth, that is how many tears I shed in order to be able to understand what a tallis truly means.”

Capacity

Posted on January 24, 2017 by Emuna Daily

According to the camel’s capacity, so is the load”(Talmud Ketubot 67a). It is the duty of those who are richer in material wealth, and those who are richer spiritually–learned Jews, Torah scholars and yeshiva students–to give generously of their greater wealth and knowledge to rescue, heal and fortify the bodies and souls of their brothers and sisters. ~ Lubavitcher Rebbe
