Shmuel Abramson works in special education and lives in Monsey, New York. As a college student in the mid-1970s, he began to re-connect to his Jewish heritage. After getting engaged to his wife-to-be, he and his fiancé went to the Rebbe to seek a blessing before getting married. During their audience, he took the opportunity to ask two questions of the Rebbe. Their answers have guided him until this day. (1977)

The late 1970s saw the rise of drugs in Israel’s school system. Dr. Eliezer Shmueli served as Director General of Israel’s Ministry of Education at that time.
