Smoking on Shabbos

from The Chassidic Story Project with Barak Hullman - A Chassidic Story Every Week · host The Chassidic Story Project with Barak Hullman

This week I have three stories for you for Gimel Tamuz, the yahrtzeit of the Lubavitcher Rebbe. The first is about an unexpected encounter between Rabbi Tuvia Bolton and a traffic policeman. The second is about a Jewish soldier in the Korean War and the Lubavitcher Rebbe's tefillin. And the third is about a woman in Meah Shearim who couldn't stop smoking on Shabbos.
