What is the sea? It is the thick blanket of materialism that smothers the fre of the G‑dly soul. With a miracle, it is ripped away and the truth revealed. Only then can the Torah be received. Don’t imagine you can keep your belief in a materialist world and append to it a Torah consciousness.

  • Victorian Government Inquiry Into Handling of Child Abuse by Religious and Other Non- Government Organisations Submission
    Victorian Government Inquiry into Handling of Child Abuse by Religious and Other Non- Government Organisations Submission This joint submission is made on behalf of members of the Victorian Jewish community who are victims of child sexual abuse perpetrated within the Melbourne Jewish community, including but not limited to within the ultra-Orthodox Yeshivah Centre, located in Hotham Street, East St Kilda. 1.0 Background 1.1. The majority of those making this submission are victims of child sexual abuse by various perpetrators associated with or operating within the grounds of the Yeshivah Centre between 1983-1994. Some of the incidents are currently the subject of Court proceedings. Others are victims of child sexual abuse perpetrated within other sections of the Jewish community. 1.2. We commend the Victorian Government on establishing this important Inquiry. We are of the view that this Inquiry is a step in the right direction towards addressing the issue of child sexual abuse within religious organisations of whatever denomination. 1.3. By way of background, the Yeshivah Centre is the roof body of a number of religious organisations responsible for the education and mentoring of Jewish children, including: i. Yeshivah College – a kindergarten to VCE single sex boy's school; ii. Beth Rivkah – a kindergarten to VCE single sex girl's school; iii. Chabad Youth – an organisation which is responsible for extra- curricular youth activities including summer and winter overnights camps for both boys and girls but with segregated activities only; iv.
