Jewish History
In 1826, Rabbi DovBer of Lubavitch (see calendar entry for yesterday, Kislev 9) was arrested on charges that his teachings threatened the imperial authority of the Czar, but was subsequently exonerated. The date of his release, Kislev 10, is celebrated amongst Chabad Chassidim as a "festival of liberation." Tachnun (confession of sins) is omitted from the day's prayers, farbrengens are held, and Rabbi DovBer's teachings are studied.

Reciprocal Tolerance
At every moment, your Creator must decide, “How should I measure this little creature, with its imperfections and blunders? How often and by what scale?”
Then He looks at how you measure others. And by that same measure, He measures you.
