Tonight In Your Sukkas Shalom

Tonight In Your Sukkas Shalom

You might be inspired to invite the Ushpizin Kadishin

Why not, right?

Well, if you invite them, they all come

Each meal you invite them to

And if you’re hosting people in need

They bless you with all they’ve got

If it’s just friends and family

Nobody in need

The Ushpizin rain down curses

Yes, curses

If you’re the baal habayis

And you want Ushpizin benefits

You’ve got two options:

1-Invite at least one needy person each time

2-Sponsor a meal for the needy with your local tzedaka each time

Otherwise

Don’t invite the Ushpizin

Jews Started Observing Sukkos

Jews Started Observing Sukkos

Only after entering Israel

According to the רמב“ם and the מבי“ט

The Baal HaTanya writes in his Shulchan Aruch

Moshe Rabenu miraculously arranged a mass esrog shipment

To the desert Jews from Italy!

The Rambam doesn’t address the desert dalet minim

The Baal HaTanya doesn’t mention the desert lack of sukka

Where did the desert Jews shake their lulavim?

Lulav without a sukka is like tefillin without a talis

And how does our mitzva of lulav represent

The miracle we’re celebrating on Sukkos?

Yeshivas Rashbi

Chatzos Kollels have become popular in recent years. Only the Zohar emphasizes the importance of this practice. It’s repeated there dozens of times.

 

With the haskama of Rav Moshe Shapiro zt”l I encourage people to learn this way themselves whenever possible.

 

When we can’t, next best is to sponsor someone who can. The ideal subject of learning after chatzos is Kabbala.

 

$1500 will sponsor a talmid chochom learning kabbala in Yeshivas Rashbi for a month.

Stealth Kollel

Twenty years ago a colleague in the Mir discovered a number of talmidei chachomim struggling financially who refused to receive tzedaka. He outsmarted them.

 

They were invited to join a Shabbos kollel paying them nicely for learning they were doing anyway wherever they want. Donors don’t know the recipients, and the recipients don’t even know they’re receiving tzedaka. This is the Stealth Kollel.

 

Stealthily supporting thirty world class talmidei chachomim learning in Yerushalayim. The most ideal form of tzedaka, as stipulated in Bava Basra 9a.

 

There are no expenses and no advertising. 100% tzedaka.

 

Sponsoring one avrech for a month is $1000. But donations of any size are warmly welcomed.
