Assimilation

Is there a difference between a Jewish soul and a non-Jewish soul? Watch the fascinating words of Rabbi Yochai Hanesav.

"As I was about to establish my family, I faced the temptation of assimilation into another nation, believing I would have no qualms. I was even making practical preparations for the wedding. Suddenly, deep in my mind, I heard the cry of the Slonim Rebbe and recoiled from my actions."

Bentzzi Gopstein has been fighting assimilation since he was 14. Now, the Reform movement seeks to halt his activities with a lawsuit. Gopstein clarifies: "This won't stop my efforts."
