from MyLife: Chassidus Applied · host Rabbi Simon Jacobson
Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: 29 Tammuz: The bridge between 28 Sivan and 3 Tammuz What should be our focus as we move from the third to the fourth month?How do we reconcile Gimmel Tammuz with the Rebbe telling us about the imminence of Moshiach’s coming? Ad mosai – how much longer must we wait for the geulah? Did the Rebbe make any statements that implied Gimmel Tammuz was about to happen, and did he give clear instructions for what he wanted us to do afterward? Why do we discuss fewer details about Gimmel Tammuz than about the day of the passing of the previous Rebbes? How can one honor Gimmel Tammuz if they are unable to visit the Ohel? Are kohanim and others who usually avoid visiting a gravesite allowed to visit the Ohel? Is a Rebbe perfect? How should a Chassid approach a situation where he does not understand something the Rebbe said or did? Is the Rebbe doing more miracles today than before Gimmel Tammuz? Can we say that the Rebbe is Moshiach after Gimmel Tammuz? What lessons do we learn from living with the times, with this week’s Torah parsha? Is there a connection between Korach and Gimmel Tammuz? What was the deeper reason for Korach’s opposition to Moses? Was Korach like a “communist”? Why did the children of Korach survive? Why does it say that they “thought they were alive” when they were actually alive? Were Dasan and Aviram total villains? Didn’t they allow themselves to get whipped instead of their brethren? Why will Korach serve as Kohan Gadol in the future? How about the rioting that ensued? Gimmel Tammuz – 32 years: What does this day teach and expect of us? Korach Are there any lessons to be learned from the NY Knicks victory?
