“What's on the agenda for tonight?" he said looking through the different programs for that evening. "We can The festival of Sukkot, which follows Rosh Hashana and Yom either hear a lecture by Rabbi Klein or go to a concert at Kippur, marks the beginning of the true days of rejoicing of the month of Tishrei, coming as it does after the solemnity of the High Holidays. Sukkot has many similarities and characteristics "Obviously we want to go to the concert. Who wants in common with Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur and is actually to go listen to someone talk for two hours when there is a the culmination and fulfilment of these first two holidays. The difference between the two lies in the fact that the holiness that was in a concealed and hidden state on Rosh Hashana and For one reason or another most people enjoy listening Yom Kippur is revealed for all to see on "the day of our rejoicing to music rather than hearing a speech.

It has the power to transform a dry accepting His sovereignty and crowning Him King over us all. On Yom Kippur we are equally aroused to do Teshuva (repent) and articulation of verbal expression into a lively, vibrant, return to G-d. When a Jew does Teshuva, he is merely uncovering and revealing his innate belief in G-d and his love for Him.
Strangely enough, the lyrics to this week's "song" are The unity of the Jewish People during the High Holidays is a full of rebuke and reprimand, very different from what unity based on the common denominator inherent in every Jew. one normally associates with the pleasure and delight of On Sukkot, however, we reach an even higher level of unity than before, developing the theme of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur musical harmony.

The Torah writes,"You shall the Hilulo (day of passing -- yahrzeit) dwell in sukkos for seven days…, in order that your generations shall know that I caused the Children of Israel to dwell in sukkos when I brought them out of the land of Egypt." Accordingly, the mitzvah of the sukkah has not been properly fulfilled if one did not know its intent- that G-d commanded us to dwell in a sukkah in remembrance of the Exodus from Egypt.

This means As is explained in various places, "the essence of knowledge is not merely knowing alone…, from authors and that each day brings a new Divine books, but the essential thing is to immerse one's own mind deeply…, and fix one's thought… with strength and service, uniquely suited to that day. vigour of the heart and mind, until his thought shall be bound… with a strong and mighty bond." Similarly the Talmud states: Of all that In this case, it is required that a person know that "I caused the Children of Israel to dwell in sukkos" and that this took place "when I brought them out of the land of Egypt." the Holy One blessed be He created in Now, every single day, morning and evening, a man is obliged to regard himself as if he is now at the moment of His world; he did not create a single the Exodus from Egypt. "This refers to the release of the divine soul from the confinement of the body…, by engaging in the Torah and the commandments in general and in particular through accepting the Sovereignty of Heaven [during the recital of the Shema]." As this concept was expressed by my revered father-in-law, the Rebbe [Rayatz], (May I serve as an atonement including every day, has a purpose in connection with the Divine service of The first thing to be done is to get out of one's straits and bounds. In terms of avodah in general, these constitute the lifestyle that a person chooses for himself. The particular straits and bounds grow out of the life situation in which giving honour to the Holy One blessed he chooses to set himself up. First of all, there has to be an Exodus from this spiritual Egypt, from all these be He. What is the special purpose and the unique "work" of the 13th of For example, a person's plans must include fixed daily periods for Torah study, and his prayers should be attended to conscientiously, not by the minimal discharge of his formal obligations.
Tishrei, the Hilulo day of the Rebbe After the Exodus from Egypt comes the Splitting of the Red Sea. As soon as a person begins to tackle the task of avodah, obstacles arise, each of them tough and formidable- just as, when the Children of Israel were on their way The Hilulo , the day of passing of a out of Egypt, behind them was the enemy, before them lay the sea, and they themselves were in the wilderness. The Tzaddik has a negative aspect -- but at Splitting of the Sea was wrought from Above.
G-d made a road there for the Children of Israel, just like a road on the dry land- except that there first had to be the same time on the Hilulo day we find one man of self-sacrifice who was prepared to leap into the sea. Once that was done, G-d transformed it into dry the loftiest aspects, for the negative is transformed to the meritorious side, […G-d then caused them to dwell in sukkos.] By way of analogy: A newborn infant is bathed and swaddled not only to protect him from uncleanliness, but also to straighten and strengthen his limbs- albeit temporarily, but this thereby attaining greater quality. The stands him in good stead throughout the time in which he grows to be a man. So, too, in avodah: When a person combination of those two conditions is brings himself to the point at which he has freed himself from the constrictions of his own mindset, so that he is now personified by the concept "return the unburdened of his former life-plans, the evil of his natural soul and the material and fleshly needs of his life become more refined.

Finally, after an agonizing wait, the signal was given that Avremeleh had appeared. Jubilantly, the disciples ran to tell the Maggid that Avremeleh was on his way, and he could now drink his coffee. Much to their surprise and disappointment, however, the Maggid insisted, "I will not drink it until COLD COFFEE

When his usual lunch hour had come and gone with no sign of him, she began to worry. She reheated the meal again and again, but still there was no sign of Avremeleh. It was not like her son to keep her waiting and as time passed she became frantic. She realized that the worst must have happened - he had been snatched off the street by the cruel soldiers.
