"The Torah is aware of its
uniqueness and unabashedly offers this challenge to every Jew
who has lived since Sinai:
You might inquire about times long
past, going back to the time God created man on earth
[exploring] one end of the heavens to the other. See if
anything as great as this has ever happened, or if the like
has ever been heard. Has any nation ever heard God speaking
out of fire, as you have, and still survived? (Devarim
4:32–33)"

Footage from the Rebbe’s 1985
gathering in celebration of the birthdate (in 1880) of his
father-in-law, the Sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, R. Yosef Yitzchak
Schneersohn, and the Sixth Rebbe’s release from Soviet
incarceration (1927). The Sixth Rebbe was imprisoned for
spreading Judaism in the Soviet Union.
Look at the programme to the right
of the film to see the event's structure.
This is an extraordinary recording, informative and
compelling.
I'm not a 'Chabadnik,' but one does not need to be one to
appreciate the Rebbe's Torah greatness and purity of spirit, and
be impressed with his energy and stamina.
