Chances are you have a Chabad Rabbi if you belong to an orthodox congregation. 4,000 of them posed for a group shot outside the Chabad HQ in New York this week. Can you spot yours?…It was a convention for shulachim from all over the world…and they took the opportunity to record the event.

Among the 4,000…Rabbi Levi Wolff, Rabbi Mendel Kastel, Rabbi Eli Cohen, Rabbi Motty Feldman, Rabbi Nochum Shapiro, Rabbi Alon Hazi, Rabbi David Saban, Rabbi Dovid Slavin, Rabbi Yehuda Spielman, Rabbi Yanky Berger, Rabbi Yossi Engel, Rabbi Yossi Feldman, Rabbi Haim Zvi Groner, Rabbi Zvi Telsner…and many, many more

    Good on chabad!

    Contrary to your misunderstanding, the representative chabad body, this Chabad organisation that the 4000 Rabbis attended, does not claim that the Rebbe is the Messiah.

    You might be interested to know that one of the 13 Principles of Jewish Faith, written by Maimonides, is that “I Believe with complete Faith in the coming of the Messiah and I Await him every day.”

    Well, these people do await him every day. How many of us really do? This is one of the 13 Principles of Our Faith. So who cares who one believes is the best candidate to be Messiah?

    But just to remind you, this Chabad majority organisation does not advocate anybody in particular as the Messiah.

    not many chabad rabbis are a credit to the name rabbi .those that believe that the rabbi is the messiah are hardly in the main stream .and the others few are a credit to “aum- israel “
