Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Chassidus Applied to 28 Sivan and 3 TammuzWhy was the Rebbe’s coming to America a watershed event? What does Gimmel Tammuz mean to us today? 28 years have passed since Gimmel Tammuz. How much longer do we have to wait? What can I do about my feelings of disappointment in the Rebbe? Why can’t we unite and directly address our post-Gimmel Tammuz challenges? If prayers are not answered, how can we continue to trust G-d? If the Rebbe’s promises did not get fulfilled, how can we continue to trust that they will be fulfilled in the future? Is it possible that since we did not have the right mindset to bring Moshiach, we will not merit to see it, like the scouts who did not enter the Promised Land? Is Moshiach only a mindset but not an actual event? Chassidus applied to KorachDid Karl Marx borrow ideas from Korach who said if everyone is equal why are some people higher than others? Why was Korach wrong? Why are secular studies not taught in Yeshiva? What is a chinuch al taharas hakodesh and what is the source for it? Gender issues – follow-up
