	The Rebbe Says...Kislev 5763
		The Rebbe would arrive at the host's home with dozens of his followers - all of whom were quite hungry from their journey - and they would expect to be treated to a sumptuous tea complete with cakes and cookies and some brandy for a l'chaim.
		Afterwards the chassidim began to sing, but the Rebbe never took his gaze off the tiny flame that was now locked in an intense fight with the darkness that surrounded it.
		The throngs of chassidim had already caught up with them and now they were joyfully bounding up those fifteen steps and cheerfully escorting the Rebbe through the wide open door.

		If chassidim really intended their use of Yiddish as a shield to "protect their young from the temptations of the modern world," then they'd be failing miserably.
		Practically all Yiddish-speaking chassidim are more fluent and comfortable in the local language (English in America, Hebrew in Israel) than they are in Yiddish.
		The common language can help cement this sense of community and keep "their young" (what are we talking about, wolves?) within the fold, but the use of Yiddish does not originate in a focus forward on the dangers facing the next generation, but in a focus backward on the history of previous generations.

		According to Jewish law, a person is only permitted to tear kriya if he is present at the moment the neshama departs from the body; seeing it with ruach ha’kodesh does not qualify.
