CREATURE FEELING BY RABBI DR. WEINREB

Our tradition teaches us to avoid using the divine name. We are instructed not to pronounce it in vain, and not to refer to it directly in writing.

ZEALOTRY, TUNNEL VISION, AND BEING SHORTSIGHTED BY RABBI MOSHE MEIR WEISS

Most of us are watching the events transpiring in Beit Shemesh with horror:  A nine year-old girl being spat upon (along with reports of rocks and feces thrown) as she goes to school leaves us shaken.  But for our personal lives there are other ramifications.  Shlomo HaMelech...
 

THE OLD YOUNG ISRAEL BY DAVID WILDER

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE BEIT SHEMESH SPITTER BY AISH HATORAH

 How dare you? How dare you spit on an 8-year-old schoolgirl and terrorize her as she walks to school? Regardless of what she’s wearing; spitting, verbal abuse, and threats of violence cannot be tolerated. How dare you call yourself a Hareidi, God-fearing Jew? Your actions are...
 

SPIRITUAL TIME MANAGEMENT BY RABBI DR. WEINREB

The two old men couldn’t have been more different from each other. Yet they both taught me the identical life lesson. The first, a cagey old Irishman, was one of my mentors in the postgraduate psychotherapy training program in which I was enrolled many years ago. He wrote quite a few...
