Chanukah live 5751 at Beis Chayeinu 770

00:14 Speaker 1 This rally is a very special thing for all people, all mankind. We see that it reaches all over the world, even Argentina and Australia. It’s a very special thing that children have the opportunity to see the Rebbe, the rally, and the light—the kindling of the menorah. It will be starting very soon in New York. It has already started in other locations throughout the world. Good afternoon, everybody. Welcome to Chanukah Live. My name is Yaakov Mordechai Halevi, alias Yari Rogain[?], and I am Executive Director of the Aleph Institute in Miami. My co-host, Rabbi Shmuel Kaplan, is Director of Lubavitch Institutions in the state of Maryland. We will be anchoring the program from New York, taking you on a whirlwind adventure across six continents. We’re about ready now to throw the program downstairs at 770, so to speak, where they are getting ready to read the first pesukim. Thank you very much. Children, sit back. I know that there are millions of people all over the world at this hour waiting to light their menorahs at home. There are also thousands of Jews worldwide who are about to participate in public menorah-lighting ceremonies via satellite right now. The first location we will be joining is Moscow. Children, you are in for a special surprise that you will find out about a bit later. But now you must prepare to hear a special address by our commander-in-chief, the Lubavitcher Rebbe shlita.

04:37 Speaker 2 Modern technology can be used to transmit things that aren’t very moral over TV, radio, or telephone. In Torah, we are using these technologies to spread the word of G-d all over the world. And as we see, the Rebbe’s voice today, whenever he speaks, is heard throughout the world simultaneously, just as it says that in the time of Moshe, his voice was heard all over the world. In the time of Moshiach, when Moshiach comes, his voice will be heard all over the world. We are already having a taste of that.
