Baruch Hashem He left to soon but perhaps this was His 4th act leaving all of us with the wisdom and great Love for all Jews and the desire to live the best lives we can and to let the flame of our souls shine in the good works or Mitzvots . i could go on fore a long time about how
every erv Shabbos i would save time to study the weekly Parsha Rabbi Sacks has been a part of my life for more than a few years and i will with others miss him so much.
What a spiritual giant! What a loss to the Jewish world 😥😥
Wow! So creepy how that came up a day after he died 😭BDE!
Thank you. Light up the Nations. Blessings.
Adagio, Rav Sacks became a rabbi at the Rebbe's urging and Chief Rabbi at the Rebbe's urging, as he said. Why would he not sound like a Chabadnik?
Thank you Thank you Rebbe and all Rebbies around the world for to share with others your wisdom, thank you for the enlightenment that you have brought to my difficult journey, thank you for to spread around the world G-d's words.
Rabbi Jonathan Sacks Thank you for your wonderful speech. Your words are powerful and inspirational and your message is clear.
Inspired I belong to a little congregation of the 'British Commonwealth' on the other side of the world. I feel really priviledged to have heard this outstanding address from our Chief Rabbi and to learn of the inspiration and influence that the Rebbe and Chabad had on his life. Both the Rebbe and the Chief Rabbi have influenced my life. The importance of making leaders, not followers, and the importance of seeing what people can become and inspiring them towards fulfilling their potential, is such a valuable message. I am glad we heard this amazing story before he leaves his role. Kol HaKavod to the Kinus committee for inviting him to speak and recording his address.
Being a Menorah It has come to me in my prayers that we are all Menorahs waithing for the Shamash to light us .We need to have more come from the shadows to be proud of Torah and the Jews who faithfully carry it.We have a new passion to instill in the next generation of Jews . As an older women who's life is half over . Were do women and men go from here? Our spiritual journey began with Adam and Chavah. This was Hashems doing . How do we move forward as Jews not just with knowledge ,but with understanding. For knowledge without understanding is like a runaway train..
Thank you
G-d bless you, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks.
Amazing speech!
Such an inspiration.
Thank you very much.
Rabbi Sacks I'm unfamiliar with Rabbi Sacks' political leanings, but I thought his address was and is inspiring! He's pretty good if you ask me!
A few thoughts from a distant admirer!
The learned Rabbi has omitted to elaborate on the promise to our father Abraham (note the meaning of אַבְרָם) and its impact on the whole world as mentioned in Genesis 12:1-3. Abraham, incidentally, was not Jewish!
I'll finish on a theo-centric note from Psalm 72:17-19. A lesser vision than the divine conquest over the whole world will not do! Ha-Shem is no tribal deity!
Meanwhile, with my greatest respect to Rabbi Sacks, שלום עליו !!

He continues the message #Adagio. Must disagree. Rabbi Sacks has said the same things about the Rebbe for many years, so there was nothing new about that. But as one of the greatest Jewish orators today, Rabbi Sacks is able to put forward a story, a message and wrap it up with a concrete call to action. On the contrary, as Chief Rabbi, he is sometimes too obsequious to the non-Jewish chattering classes in the UK. His positions on Israel, at time, l have been much more critical than Chabad will ever be, and more in-line with Israel's critics. Yet, a great speech and one worth listening to.
Jonathan Sacks Rabbi Jonathan Sacks is a wordsmith par excellence whose head and heart are responsible for some of the most erudite works in the modern Jewish corpus. Criticism has often been levelled at him, in his position as Chief Rabbi, for his obsequiousness towards the Charedi world and this speech is an indication of just that; he has even changed his Hebrew pronunciation to curry favour. There is no doubting his love of Am Yisrael nor of Medinat Yisrael, but this speech is really over the top and does not reflect his hashkaffa at all. If there is a blemish on his position in the community, it is just this, that he failed to stand up for Orthodoxy and caved in to the Chabad/Charedi zeitgeist.
The wisdom of the Rebbe What a powerful idea - If the Nazis sought out every Jew in hate, then we must seek out every Jew in love! Thank you Rabbi Sacks for this inspirational speech and the many references to the wisdom of the Rebbe.
Rabbi Sacks and the Shluchim Listening to Rabbi Sacks, yes it is so credible !!!! - and his ability to sum it all up in this Address, everything we could be thinking of regarding the Rebbe and the shluchim, and he says it. How proud we are to know that you and your families have chosen your life’s work in doing the Rebbe’s work. In the name of all the parents of shluchim everywhere we are so blessed.....
Re Women The women have their own conference in February and the men get their own turn at taking care of things at home then and ensuring that the Chabad house runs smoothly. Click on "conference of Chabad women emissaries" on the left to view past conferences.
Jonathan Sacks Where are the women??
Until today I had never heard of this comment that the Rebbe created LEADERS, not merely FOLLOWERS
This is an awesome statement
