  • Torah Online - Rabbi Tuvia Bolton
    Torah Online - Rabbi Tuvia Bolton In this week's section tells of how a talented rabble-rouser called Korach succeeded in inciting the entire Jewish nation against Moses declaring; "Why do you (Moses) raise yourself over the congregation of G-d!" (16:3) At first glance, this was a pretty stupid complaint. Moses was the one who single-handedly led the Jews from Egypt, went up on Mt. Sinai to get the Torah, constantly received orders from G-d, brought Manna from heaven and water from a rock to feed all the Jews. It was obvious that he deserved to be the head! Not only that, but Korach himself wanted to rule! So his complaint was transparent as well. Why did it inflame everyone? To understand this here are two stories. Michael Sofer and his wife Atara were avowed atheists. Born and bred in the Israeli commune system (Kibbutzim) they were devoted heart and soul to the ultra communist "Shomair HaTzair" (the 'Young Guard') ideal; hating anything that reeked of religion…. especially the Jewish religion. But all that changed. It began with the communist revolution and takeover of Czechoslovakia. At first the Sofers were overjoyed with the news; but when the new 'enlightened' regime in a rash of brutal arrests and imprisonments, incarcerated a 'Shomer HaTzair' friend of theirs who worked there called Mordechi Oren with the ridiculous charge of 'spying for the benefit of England' they began to realize that Communism was as evil and corrupt as everyone said it was. It wasn't long before they became disenchanted with the Kibbutz movement as well and eventually decided, as so many myriads of their Israeli brothers and sisters, to leave the country for greener pastures.

There is a fascinating story told by the Frierdiker Rebbe about Chai Elul, which the Rebbe recounted many times throughout the years: On Shabbos Chai Elul, 5652, the Rebbe Rashab ascended to Gan Eden (still during his lifetime) along with his father, the Rebbe Maharash, where he heard seven “Toros” from the Baal Shem Tov.1 In this sicha, the Rebbe expounds on the nature of this miraculous event, deriving an important lesson for each of us.2 Throughout the generations of Chabad, Firstly, the fact that the Rebbe Rashab nature. But in truth, all of nature is really there has never been an emphasis on heard Toros from the Baal Shem Tov in Gan miraculous, so there is no reason to make a “moifsim”—supernatural events.

It is customary at Jewish weddings to remember the deceased grandparents of the chassan and kallah. Considering our grandfathers’ shared histories and friendship, it seemed appropriate to record the stories of their lives in honor of our wedding. Chaim’s grandfather, Rabbi Mordechai Meir (“Mottel”) Bryski, was generally a man of few words. When pressed to speak, he pre- ferred to do it through song. Singing played a central role in his life. Be it the songs he grew up with, Chabad nigunim or the nigunim he would sing and compose during his daily prayers. His favorite was the Shir Hageulah, the Song of Redemption (see page 34).
