New Book Release: The Art of Giving

The Art of Giving by R. Menachem Mendel of Lubavitch


What`s the ideal way to give tzedakah? Specifically, is it best to give whatever we can at any given time regardless of the amount, or should we postpone our tzedakah giving until such time as we can afford to make a more sizable contribution? Or is neither approach necessarily preferable to the other?

The Art of Giving emphatically exclaims that, yes, it does indeed make a difference how we go about giving to tzedakah, because the experience of tzedakah is about so much more than meets the eye.

New Book Release: Shulchan Aruch English Vol. 1: Orach Chaim 1-57


Shulchan Aruch English Vol. 1: Orach Chaim 1-57 by Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi

The code of Jewish Law of Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi.
The Shulchan Aruch concerns itself with the here and now of daily existence. Indeed, it seems that no detail of mundane life is left unexamined and undisiplined by the law, of halacha, of Torah.
With profound joy we now present the first installment of the new edition of an English translation of Rabbi Schneur Zalman's second magnum opus, Shulchan Aruch HaRav, the Code of Jewish Law.
