Simply Beautiful
You shall be wholehearted with Hashem your G-d. (Devarim 18:13) The Dubno Maggid explains the art of attaching two different kinds of items. Sometimes you have two flat pieces of wood that you want to attach together, which is done with relative ease: Just put glue on both sides and press. However, sometimes you are [...]

פשוט ישר
"תָּמִ֣ים תִּֽהְיֶ֔ה עִ֖ם ה' אֱלֹקֶֽיך" (דברים יח:) המגיד מדובנא מסביר את אומנות הצירוף של שני פריטים שונים. אם צריכים לחבר שתי חתיכות עץ משוטחות, ניתן לעשות זאת יחסית בקלות - פשוט לשים דבק בשני הצדדים וללחוץ. אבל אם צריכים להדביק דברים שבורים זה בזה שנראים כמו פאזל וזה אתגר אמיתי להדביק את כל החלקים זה [...]

Divided and United
I heard once from a famous Rabbi (who was a guest speaker at one of our Melaveh Malka Dinners) the following question: Why is it that there has to be so much diversity in klal Yisrael? The Ashkenazim have one way of serving Hashem, so too the Sefardim, Teimanim, and Chasidim. Why can’t we just [...]

מאוחדים בפיצול
שמעתי פעם אחת מרב מפורסם (שהיה נואם אורח במלווה מלכה שלנו) את השאלה הבאה: מדוע צריכות להיות כל כך הרבה קבוצות שונות בכלל ישראל. לאשכנזים יש דרך אחת לשרת את ה', וכך גם לספרדים, לתימנים, ולחסידים יש לכל אחד את הדרך שלהם. מדוע איננו יכולים למצוא דרך מאוחדת לכולנו לעבוד את ה'? הוא ענה שאם [...]
