Beis Moshiach presents the maamer the Rebbe MH”M delivered on Yud Shvat 5719, in accordance with the custom established by the Rebbe to review each year a section of the Rebbe Rayatz’s Hemshech “Basi L’Gani” of 5710
The Mitzvah of Pidyon HaBen-Redemption of the First-Born requires a father to give five sh’kalim-silver coins to a Kohen 30 days after the birth of a first-born son.
We spoke with Rabbi Yosef Yitzchok Segal, spiritual director of Yeshivas Tomchei T’mimim in Natzrat Ilit, and asked him how to prepare for Yud Shevat. * The Rebbe himself outlined the path to hiskashrus, by learning the teachings of the Nasi HaDor.
He moved to Eretz Yisroel at a young age, from Morocco. * The Rebbe directed him toward chinuch where he quickly rose to star status as an educator. * A brief biography of Rabbi Shimon Amitai upon his sudden passing at the age of 73, on his way home from a farbrengen in shul.
To whom did the Rebbetzin say at six in the morning: At this very moment, the Rebbe just went to rest. * Why did the Rebbe say that, “I still owe Mrs. Schneersohn for the kugel and the cholent that I did not eat on Shabbos?”
“Mommy, write to my morah telling her that I have a Tzivos Hashem room and I am a soldier and do a lot of mitzvos.” * In honor of the great day of Yud Shevat, we spoke with educators who put a lot into children, from the youngest ages, encouraging hiskashrus to the Rebbe MH”M in daily behavior, in exciting and creative ways.
