Thank you Rabbi for your powerful words. I believe them, and as a Shoah survivor, appreciate them more than ever. Not always in my life, understanding the full impact of what this truly means, I do now, facing the last illness in my life. Reply

Last two words Moadim Lsimcha to you and your family Rabbi. It is 10 to 8 in the morning here in Netanya where I sit drinking a cup of English tea in my sukkah watching your video. Originally from London, my family and I made Aliya this year so it is out first sukkot in this country. Your words are wonderful, and inclusive and inspiring. I have never written to someone publicly on the Internet before but you have inspired me to do this. I let you go from strength to strength, and have a healthy and happy 5778. Please feel free to reply to me, as my wife has a cousin who lives in Caufield. Charles Reply

Are you really sure, in the beginning, that יהוה created the world just for the jews, with all respect? I am interested in knowing why! Thanks for your reply. Reply

May HaSham bless you It breaks my heart to learn that you have lost your beloved wife.
I read and listen to your teachings and I am pleased with the insight, comfort and joy that your words bring. I cannot write anything that will lighten your grief, I shall but assure you that I share it and know it. My husband died at the age of 46 and I have raised my 2 sons on my own. I am not Jewish, but I am on the path to become part of the Jewish people and your teachings help me to learn little by little.
Thank you for all that you do and are! Reply
