סליחות לתענית אסתר

קנא לשמך נורא ונקדש, חזה כרמך נהרס ונידש. זרויינו קבץ ושיר לך יחודש, קימם והחים בבנין בית המקדש. וכעשותך נוראות באותן הימים, אתנו הפלא תשועת עולמים. מצוא לפניך כפר ותנחומים, אל מלך יושב על כסא רחמים.

  2. There is no reason schools are off today. It’s a chutzpah that schools started doing that since Covid.

  4. MASSIVE WIN:

    The New Jersey Appellate Division today granted a major win to Arthur Lang's long running Alcantra vs. Hespe lawsuit which seeks for a fairer funding formula for the Lakewood Public School District.

    The 3-judge panel agreed with Mr. Lang's long time 2 arguments: 1) Lakewood's students are not receiving a constitutionally sound education, 2) the fault of this is because New Jersey's School Funding Formula is unconstitutional as applied to Lakewood's unique demographic situation.

  6. So this Chabad rabbi cared so much for his fellow Jews ,that he specifically plunked himself in Lakewood, a vibrant frum city filled with scholars and educated laymen ,just so that he could to "educate" them. And he runs to APP , this caring individual , to tell them that the Jews are not observing Purim properly. My ,what would Lakewood do without it's local Chabbad.

    1. To be fair, APP could have taken his words out of context. I would not be surprised at all.

  10. Not clear what this Chabbad rabbi is saying in the first place . Dressing up is not the minhag ? Obviously it is

    ReplyDelete
  11. Dressing up is a minhag and mesorah in klal yisrael before chabad was invented. But chabad is not tolerant of anyone not like them hence the need to go to the app and bashmutz a minhag yisroel.

  12. Seems like Sinas Chinum is a popular minhag too
