The Jewish Approach to Planning a Family | The Lubavitcher Rebbe

Torah's first commandment is: "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and conquer it."
This is not just a physical command, but a spiritual one: When it comes to building a family, one must conquer all the concerns that stem from the 'earth' - from worldly, materialistic considerations -- whether how much it will cost, or how child-rearing might interfere with one's personal pursuit of spiritual and physical comfort...
The soul is literally a part of G-d. If one were to ask, "What does my soul say? What does it think about all my materialistic concerns?" There is no question what the soul says on the subject, for it is G-d's blessing alone that brings abundance.
The confusion comes only from a materialistic mindset. That is what one must "conquer," and the conquering begins with the recognition that the soul is "a literal part of G-d above," and that the soul is a Jew's primary self - and therefore, a Jew's first question must be: "What does my G-dly soul think?" Then, automatically, he will conquer his materialistic inclination.

My grandfather Eizic taught me at a young age to love and respect the Rebbe. I love the Rebbe and am also proud that my family is from Brooklyn, New York! God bless!

[@meliholmes]

I think the Rebbe was an Angel that came to teach I am greatful for his insights and guiding words.

[@Y1836Y]

He wasn't an angel. Angels have limitations humans don't. The Rebbe was a rebbe. A tzaddik.

[@gw4273]

Thank you for this message, it's one of the best I have ever heard from the Rebbe or anyone else.

A truly amazing rabbi. The L-rd adored his soul, before it arrived in his mother womb. One day, some day...all my Heb's once lost. Will once again be at peace on earth. gdtII

Is the Rebbe speaking Yiddish? It sounds Germanic

[@isaweesaw]

Yes he is ;)

[@andreasborg7579]

Yes it is jiddisch that he speaks. It sounds german because it originated from areas that is modern Germany around 1000 years ago.

[@sriddle3569]

[@sweethomes674]

Excellent thanks 🇮🇱😊🕊🌸🌹

[@mosesgummadi]

Is this Yiddish? I hear some Hebrew words, but looks like he says “und” for “and” as in German instead of “ve” in Hebrew.

[@dannyfarkas9127]

Its mainly yiddish but he uses alot of hebrew and talmudic/aramaic words (as most orthodox jews do when speaking yiddish).

[@ramonmenendezrecio4442]

Yes, it is Yiddish. He also says other German-like words.

[@anjahorn]

Yes, this is jiddisch. Most lovley Language in de world (for me).

[@mickaelcohen5581]

RK NINE That's not good you should understand that the soul needs the body as much that body needs the soul. Separation in mind comes from the fall of Adam and eve the Tree of knowledge. Her u just fell by separating. U can't send ur soul without ur body

[@fedy3332]

if Moshiah will come it will be to heal societies before the destruction of families. praise be to God
