As we leave the month of Adar, where we increase in joy, we enter the month of Nissan, the month of nessim and geula (miracle and redemption). So we have to take the joy of Adar and apply it to our service of Hashem and work on doing things to actualize the redemption. So what […]

Well now we are entering the month of Nissan, the month of nissim and geula! How exciting is that!! This year as you clean for Pesach, anticipate the redemption. Work hard, scrub your inner self, remove any trace of "chametz" (pride or ego or selfishness). Let’s make ourselves true vessels for the light of Hashem.

Before Moshiach comes, we are taught in Torah, that there is a war of Gog and Magog. There are many different facets to this and many ways the Rabbonim have interpreted this war to be.  It is not an actual physical war between nations. Chassidus explains that the war of Gog and Magog is the

The decision in Israel to convict Elor Azaria of murder is shameful! there is no other way to describe it. A totally galut mentality! How low can the court system fall?  To equate the murder of a terrorist who came to murder  Jews with regular murder is absolutely ridiculous.  Who cares if Elor killed him
