1) an embedded audio file on Saturday night.

2) an embedded video file and a link to it on my YouTube channel, also on Saturday night.

3) A link to the printable PDF file of my weekly email story on www.ascentofsafed.com, which is posted on this group on Thursday nights. (If you subscribe separately to the email list, you'll receive it earlier in the week.)

Week #247--for Saturday night, Jan. 25, 2025

PRINTABLE--on this site:
"A QUESTIONABLE PIECE OF MEAT" (s1415/17-1236 words)

When, as a young married man, Rabbi Shneur-Zalman returned from the Maggid and lived publicly as a chasid, his in-laws' feelings towards him turned from endearment and respect to anger and hostility.

Why this week? Friday, the 24th of Tevet, is the yahrzeit of Rabbi Shneur Zalman, the first Lubavitcher Rebbe.

AUDIO 197: "CHILDREN IN DREAMS AND WHEELCHAIRS" (s944)
Saturday night 7:45 - WhatsApp or Email

The local Muslim ruler asked why the Jews were making such a commotion. Upon being told it was a great Torah scholar and Kabbalist, Rabbi Yaakov Abuhatzeira, who had been accorded such honor, he became intensely jealous.

Why this week? Monday was the hilula (yahrzeit celebration) of Rabbi Yaakov Abuhatzeira.

VIDEO 188: "GIVE ME THE SHIVERS" (s374)
Saturday night 8:30 - WhatsApp or Email or YouTube

No sooner had Rebbe Shneur Zalman of Chabad uttered those words when his chasid began trembling, his teeth chattering uncontrollably.

Why this week? 1) The Torah reading, Va'eira, contains the first seven of the Ten Plagues.
2) Friday, the 24th of Tevet, is the yahrzeit of Rabbi Shneur Zalman, the first Lubavitcher Rebbe.
