	Living Sounds of Sinai It's been said that if you talk to G‑d, you're a religious person; if G‑d talks to you, you're crazy. I guess that means I'm crazy. G‑d talks to me. Not as frequently as He should, but fairly often


	Parshah A Long Pole By law, the menorah stood in a chamber into which only kohanim ("priests") were permitted entry. But the law also states that an ordinary person may light the menorah. What is the point — and lesson — of this legal paradox?


	Women Baring More Than Skin Israeli consular officials in New York have hired one of the most popular Men's magazines for the tricky task of revamping Israel's image...


	Audio/Video There Now For hundreds of years—perhaps since the beginning of Creation—a piece of the world has been waiting for your soul to purify and repair it. And you are there... now.

Our Rebbe revives the dead. What is a corpse? Something cold and unfeeling. Life is movement, warmth, excitement. Is there anything as frozen in self-absorption, as cold and unfeeling as the mind? And when the cold-blooded mind understands, comprehends, and is excited by a G‑dly idea - is this not a revival of the dead?

— The disciples of Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi
