Living in tumultuous times, he shifted the center of the movement from its Eastern European origins to its current headquarters in the United States.

Amazing series! Thank you Rabbi Abrahamson for your generosity of sharing with wider public

@lucyfoster8624 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing this history lesson. Now I understand my grandparents & great-grandparents much better. Have an awesome day!

Shalom Aleichem, Dr. Abramson. I really enjoy these JBaH pieces. I'm a bochur in a Lubavitch yeshiva and I really enjoy the historical perspective of the Chabad Rebbeim. It really helps with my hiskashrus to the Rebbe to learn about him in a different way than I'm used to. Thanks so much!

The Rayatz was not the founder of Tomchei Tmimim--that was the Rashab. However, the Rayatz served as the main administrator for Tomchei Tmimim.

Jewish culture is interesting. I personally am Jewish and I like learning about orthodox Christian history in addition to our own.

Todah Rebbe I truly enjoy your lectures

@markjacobi3537 5 лет назад

I live in Melbourne Australia. The RAYATZ Tzl was an outstanding example of a Jewish leader who completely and with real self sacrifice served all Jews. I believe he was imprisoned many times when Russia was ruled by the Czars and then The Rayatz TZL stood up against the Communist and was finally released 12 th Tammus 1927

@marcgarfinkelmentalist3565 8 лет назад

HiMy grandfather was also one of the choices to be the rebbe. His name was rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Garfinkel. Did you ever hear his story ??

@benavraham4397 3 года назад

Fantastic lecture! The third Chabad Rebbe was the "Tzemach Tzedek" (the title of his book) Rabbi Menachem Mendel, who was named after Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Vitebsk, the teacher of the founder Chabad. Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Vitebsk came to the Holy Land in 1777, establishing Hasidism in Tiberias, and that lead to everything Jewish going on in the Holy Land to this day.

Likutei Diburim is not a collection of the talks of the Rashab but of the Rayatz himself, and it was recorded not by the Rayatz himself but by his chasidim. However, it is correct that the Rayatz spend a great deal of time transcribing his father's discourses (maamarim), and these are published in the Sefer Hamaamarim of the Rashab.

very interesting, Mr. Abramson is widely informed, but as a Bulgarian by birth I suggest a book by Prof. Bar Zohar - Beyond Hitlers Grasp - The saving of the Bulgarian Jews.

Heartfelt history that nourishes empathy for those who prevailed. How did they sustain themselves against such brutality? Can we, the living, live up to their determination?. Peggy Finston

Rav Yosef Yitzchak did not escape from Stalin's Soviet-occupied Poland but rather from Nazi-occupied Poland (his Yeshiva was in Otwock, 23 kilometres (14 mi) southeast of Warsaw) , and was spirited of there by a German officer as recounted in "Rescued by the Reich" by Mark Bryan Ridge. My father's uncle Rabbi Avram Barnetsky studied there as an American student up until the Nazi invasion.

I’ve watched several videos I enjoyed each of them and learned so much . I’m learning from a different point of view .Christianity has left a lot out and has in my opinion no room for Judaism and I have found a lot of contradictions in the gospels and acts . I’m learning new things every day

@HenryAbramsonPhD 3 года назад

Learn in good health!

@bradthehighwayman9956 2 года назад

Christianity has nothing left out and there are no contradictions. But it doesn’t have place for Judaism, if you mean the Post-Temple Judaism, which is poor attempt to LARP as Ancient Israelites. You need to repent of your attacks on Christianity and get back with Jesus.

What percentage of Jews in Russia were not Orthodox on the eve of the Communist revolution? In Eretz Israel, when did the non-Shabbos-observent Jews break 50%? Thank you in advance if you can reply😃.

Why Rabbi Schneerson never went to Israel.

@chanaselwyn9265 7 месяцев назад

The PreviouscRebbe did. The 7th Lubavitcher Rebbe did not.

@davidsavage6324 6 лет назад

i bet Christian attempts to convert jews would have been more successful from a dual covenant rather than a Supercessionism platform, and if they offered Jews to convert to a unitarian and universalist brand of Christianity where they didn't have to believe Jesus was THE end of times messiah, but rather a prophet who took the title Anointed One cause he healed using anointing oils.

@davidsavage6324 6 лет назад

but then again even with Muslims they accept Jesus as the Messiah just not as God, so great, no need to fight! yay! so why'd the Crusades happen? oh, yeah, a person is smart, people are dumb, panicky, mobs usually unconcerned with ethics and harmony. I personally feel the let he who is without sin cast the first stone should be emblematic of the ethical philosophy of secular humanists and religious humanists.

@TheDavidlloydjones 8 лет назад

Rabbi, Your mention of the inter-war period reminds me of a nasty irony. "Kaganovich" means "Rabbinical." Here in Canada, a beloved political figure was the late Joe Salzburg, for many years the Communist legislator for Spadina. He left the Communists in 1947 when he made his annual hegira to Moscow and found that Stalin had murdered all his friends in the Russian Yiddish theatre. Joey lived on to become a senior statesman in Canadian Conservative Judaism and in both the Jewish and the public social services worlds. Joey was the son of an Orthodox ... uh, kagan. Best wishes, Chag Sameach l'Chanukkah -- I am enjoying your good RU-vids. -dlj.

@TheDavidlloydjones 8 лет назад

***** Hi Rabbi, Thanks for your note. Of course you're right about "Kagan," as I realised after I'd hit "send." I used to live in Hamilton, and was member of a very fine little shul, Ohav Zedek (sic.) of which after about ten years I was elected to the Board. It's a very old shul, dating back to times when Hamilton's working class, 20th century, Jews lived downtown. Hamilton is also home to one of the oldest Reform congregations in the world, dating back to Rabbi Hirsch's day in the 19th century. I came to Toronto in 2000, and have only occasionally attended The Minsker, a beautiful old synagogue just off Spadina, most of whose traditinal members now live in the suburbs. I've subscribed to the Koren edition of the Steinsaltz Talmud. I studied the first four volumes of the Steinsaltz in the Random House imprint, intro, Bava Metzia, and I forget what else back then. Time to get organizaed again. My watching your learned and interesting RU-vids is part of my preparation for going to see the local Chabad Rabbi, for guidance on how to study Talmud. I hope to spend some times with over the next few years. A pleasure to make your electronic acquaintance. Best, -dlj.

@Wadj1 7 лет назад

Hamilton is a great spot!

@sheahoffman5936 2 года назад

I know you don’t mean it this way but when you say “the Jews did this” or “the Jews did that” you are actively acting as the wicked son, via the story of Pesach. Better to say, “we did that” not “the Jews” no?
