Tishrei 7, 5751 – August 12, 1990 (1) On this Wednesday before Yom Kippur, the Rebbe greeted the members of the Machne Israel Development Fund — philanthropists supporting Lubavitch institutions worldwide — for their twice-annual conference. Th e Rebbe addressed them publicly and then spoke to each privately. Aft er that, the Rebbe spoke to the Shluchim (Chabad emissaries) who accompanied them during the visit, speaking about the job and mission of the Shluchim. Th e fi nal few minutes of the address were dedicated to the “hot” topic of the day and to the Shluchim’s role in it: ִו ִיהי ָרצוֹן ְוהוּא ָה ִﬠ ָקּר – ֶשׁ ָכּל ֶא ָחד ֵמ ִא ָתּנוּ ְיִה ֶיה Th e most important thing is – and may " ָשׁ ִל ַיח" ְל ַב ֵשּׂר ְל ַﬠ ְצמוֹ, ִל ְב ֵני ֵבּיתוֹ ְוּל ָכל ַה ְיּ ִהוּדים so be G-d’s Will – that each and every one of ִבּ ְס ִב ָיבתוֹ, ֶשׁ" ִה ֵנּה ֶזֹה ָבּא"us should become a shliach (an emissary) to ,1 inform himself, his family and all the Jews around him that “Here he [Moshiach] comes,”1 Th e spiritual aspect of the redemption through Moshiach – and the cause of all its other aspects – is an unprecedented revelation of G-dliness within the world. So the recognition of Moshiach’s arrival is in essence a recognition that: " ִה ֵנּה ֱא ֵלקינוּ ֶזה גוֹ' ֶזה ה' ִקִוּינוּ לוֹ"Behold, this is our G-d... Th is is the L-rd 2“ for Whom we hoped2.” Th e Medrash teaches that at Krias Yam Suf (the splitting of the Sea), the Jewish people announced “Th is is My G-d!”, indicating that the presence of G-d was so strongly visible that every Jew was able to so-called point their fi nger at it and say “this is Him!” (ב' ְפּ ָﬠ ִמים ֶזהNote that the word “this” is mentioned (3) twice in this verse.) – Th e word “this” twice indicates an even greater G-dly revelation than the one at the sea. As the Medrash continues to teach that “G-d told the people of Israel, ‘In this world you said “this” only once, but in the World to Come you will say the same thing twice!” ְו ִה ֵנּה ָדִוד ַמ ְל ָכּא ְמ ִשׁ ָיחא, And here is David the King Moshiach 4 BEIS MOSHIACH ְו ִכי ֵא ִל ָיהוּ ַה ָנּ ִביא ְכּ ָבר יוֹם ֹק ֶדם ָה ָיה ִבּ ְט ַבְר ָיאSince our message is that Moshiach is al- 4 ִוּב ֵשּׂר אוֹדוֹת ִבּ ַיאת ָמ ִשׁ ַיח ִצְד ֵקנוּ. ready here, we must also make all aware that Eliyahu HaNavi [the prophet Elijah] already appeared a day earlier in Teverya to announce the arrival of our righteous Moshiach. Th e sages have a tradition that when the Sanhedrin will be restored in the future, they will fi rst convene in Teverya (Tiberius, in the Galilee) and only then relocate to their natural seat in Jerusalem. How can we say that Moshiach can come at any given moment if Eliyahu has not arrived to announce it? Th e Rebbe explains: ְו ֵישׁ ַלוֹמר, ְדּ ֵכ ָיון ֶשׁ ָמּ ִשׁ ַיח ָיכוֹל ָלבוֹא ְבּ ָכל יוֹם, It may be suggested that since Moshiach " ֲא ַח ֶכּה לוֹ ְבּ ָכל יוֹם ֶשׁ ָיּבוֹא"can come on any given day − as the text of the ,5 principle of belief in Moshiach indicates: “I await his coming every day”5 − with no reser- vation or preconditions whatsoever specifi ed, ְו ֵא ִל ָיהוּ ַה ָנּ ִביא ָצִרי ְל ַב ֵשּׂר יוֹם ֹק ֶדם ַﬠל ִבּ ַיאת yet we know that Eliyahu HaNavi must fi rst ַה ָמּ ִשׁ ַיח appear to announce Moshiach’s arrival the day prior. Th e Rebbe off ers an innovative solution: – ַמ ִגּ ַיﬠ ֵא ִל ָיהוּ ַה ָנּ ִביא ִל ְט ַבְר ָיא ְבּ ֹפ ַﬠל ַמ ָמּשׁ ָכּל Eliyahu HaNavi actually comes every day יוֹם ְוּמ ַב ֵשּׂר ַﬠל ִבּ ַיאת ַה ָמּ ִשׁ ַיח to Teverya and announces the coming of Moshiach. ( ִבּ ְמ ֻי ָחד) ְל ֵאלּוּ ֶשׁ ְעוֹמִדים ְבּ ַמ ֲﬠ ָמד ַוּמ ָצּב ְדּ" ֲא ַח ֶכּה Th e announcement is directed particularly לוֹ ְבּ ָכל יוֹם ֶשׁ ָיּבוֹא" – to those who stand in anticipation of Moshiach on a daily basis, – ַגּם ְל ֵאלּוּ ֶשׁ ֵאין ְאוֹמִרים ֹזאת ְבּ ִדבּוּר ( ְכּ ִמ ְנ ָהג even if they do not verbally articulate this ַח ַבּ"ד)6, ֶא ָלּא ְחוֹשׁ ִבים ַﬠל ֶזה, belief, but only think about it (as is the Chabad custom) Delving Deeper: The Subconscious Effect One may ask an obvious question: an an- hear it cannot hear it due to their spiritual in- nouncement is something that is meant to sensitivity? be heard; what good is the announcement of Th e answer is that their souls do sense it, and Moshiach’s arrival that isn’t heard by anyone? the soul – being the main part of the person – subconsciously impacts the person’s conscious Th e previous Rebbe teaches in the name of self and that is why a person receives sudden, the Baal Shem Tov in explanation of the Mishna unexpected thoughts of teshuva from time to (Avos 6:2) that “every day a heavenly voice emits time. from mount Chorev, announcing ‘woe onto the creatures from the shame of the Torah.’” In a similar vein, the announcement that Moshiach is coming tomorrow made by Eliyahu Th e very same question rises here: what good every day is the drive of every Jew to become does the announcement do if those who need to more aware and prepared for Moshiach. 13 NISSAN 5781 5 Liberation From Sadness The Rebbe writes to a woman who was suffering from anxiety and depression: בנוגע למצב רוחה - הרי ניסן הוא חודש הגאולה מכל ענין המפריע לחירות ועבודת ה' בשמחה! Concerning your mood: now is the month of Nissan, and Nissan is the “month of redemption” from all matters disturbing one from attaining freedom and serving Hashem with joy. Why Is This Korban Different from All Other Korbanos? The following is the Rebbe’s handwritten addition on one copy of a “Michtav Klali-Proti” (an identical letter that was “personalized” and sent to several people) on Yud Alef Nissan 5711 published in Igros kodesh vol. 4, letter nu. 972: חלוק הפסח משאר קרבנות שאכילת האדם עיקר בו פו“מ [=פועל ממש] ולפעול בגוף הגשמי בחייו הגשמיים. ועדמש"כ [=ועל דרך מה שכתבו] בהקדמת הקונ‘[טרס] לענין מצה מהמשך וככה הגדול. The Korban Pesach differs from all other sacrifices in that what is funda- mental is man’s partaking of it, [i.e., the most crucial aspect being] actual deed and to have an effect on one’s physical bodyand one’s physical life, as is stated in the preface to the kuntres regarding matza as quoted from the hemshech [series of maamarim entitled] VeChachah HaGadol [In a subsequent letter from 13 Nissan (nu. 985), the Rebbe reiterates the same point, with a slight addition: “Take note regarding the concepts that I cite in my introduction: that when eating matza on Pesach, the body derives nurture from food that strengthens faith in Hashem.

  • The Rosh Chodesh Planner Was Designed to Serve As a Resource for Shluchos When Planning Women's Programs. Many Years Ago, When
    בס"ד PREFACE The Rosh Chodesh Planner was designed to serve as a resource for shluchos when planning women’s programs. Many years ago, when one of the first shluchim arrived in Pittsburgh, PA, prepared to combat the assimilation of America through hafotzas hamayonos, one of the directives of the Rebbe to the shlucha was that it did not suffice for her to only become involved in her husband’s endeavors, but that she should become involved in her own areas of activities as well. Throughout the years of his nesiyus, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Nesi Dorenu, appreciated and valued the influential role the woman plays as the akeres habayis. This is evident in the many sichos which the Rebbe dedicated specifically to Jewish women and girls worldwide. Involved women are catalysts for involved families and involved communities. Shluchos, therefore, have always dedicated themselves towards reaching a broad spectrum of Jewish women from many affiliations, professions and interests. Programs become educational vehicles, provide networking and outreach opportunities for the participants, and draw them closer in their unified quest for a better and more meaningful tomorrow. Many shluchos have incorporated a schedule of gathering on a monthly basis. Brochures are mailed out at the onset of the year containing the year’s schedule at a glance. Any major event(s) are incorporated as well. This system offers the community an organized and well-planned view of the year’s events. It lets them know what to expect and gives them the ability to plan ahead. In the z’chus of all the positive accomplishments that have been and are continuously generated from women’s programs, may we be worthy of the immediate and complete Geulah.

    Divine Image Divine Image View All Divine Image Book Insights into the Noahide Laws Through the light of Torah and Chabad philosophy Adapted by Rabbi Yakov Dovid Cohen Copyright © 2006 by Rabbi Yakov Dovid Cohen All Rights Reserved ISBN 1-4243-1000-8 978-1-4243-1000-5 Published by The Institute of Noahide Code www.Noahide.org Printed in the United States of America In English En Español En français En français En français 한국어 中文 اﻟﺬات اﻹﻟﻬﻴﺔ INTRODUCTION Every person is created with a Divine image. It is the task of every one of us to elevate all human activity to a Divine purpose. In short, this means being able to connect every human activity with G-d – and this is precisely the purpose of the Torah and its commandments, called mitzvoth in Hebrew. Every human being has the unique ability to connect his entire being with the Creator. Upon achieving this task, he creates a dwelling place for G-d in this world, thereby fulfilling the purpose of creation. As is explained in this book, the worlds of the spiritual and the physical are not in conflict. Their ultimate purpose is that they be fused together with the physical being permeated by the spiritual. The core element of every mitzvah – commandment performance is to take the physical creation and utilize it for a Divine purpose. Thereby a wonderful harmony achieving both in the individual and in the world at large. This is a theme that encompasses all times and places; wherever and whenever a person operates, he is able to utilize the task at hand for its correct and Divine purpose, thus transforming one’s daily life activities into a dwelling place for G-d.

Leinenweber DAVID COLEMAN HEADLEY ) GOVERNMENT’S POSITION PAPER AS TO SENTENCING FACTORS The United States of America, by and through its attorney, Gary S. Shapiro, Acting United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, respectfully submits the following as its position paper as to sentencing factors and objections to the Presentence Report: I. Introduction Determining the appropriate sentence for David Headley requires consideration of uniquely aggravating and uniquely mitigating factors. Headley played an essential role in the planning of a horrific terrorist attack. His advance surveillance in India contributed to the deaths of approximately 164 men, women, and children, and injuries to hundreds more. Undeterred by the shocking images of death and destruction that came out of Mumbai in November 2008, Headley traveled to Denmark less than two months later to advance a plan to commit another terrorist attack. Headley not only worked at the direction of Lashkar e Tayyiba for years, but also with members of al Qaeda. There is little question that life imprisonment would be an appropriate punishment for Headley’s incredibly serious crimes but for the significant value provided by his immediate and extensive cooperation. Case: 1:09-cr-00830 Document #: 358 Filed: 01/22/13 Page 2 of 20 PageID #:2893 As discussed in this and other filings, the information that Headley provided following his arrest and in subsequent proffer sessions was of substantial value to the Government and its allies in its efforts to combat international terrorism.
