Torah Online - Rabbi Tuvia Bolton The meeting had been set months before, and the group of five Chabad women had been waiting almost twenty minutes in the reception room outside the office door of Knesset member Sara Doron, anxious to present their well-prepared case regarding the law called ‘Mihu Yehudi’. I jumped out of my car and thought that I would run, but all that came out was a scream, “SHMA YISROEL!” The man with the gun yelled back quickly, “Shma Yisroel HaShem Elokenu HaShem Echad!” They were Chabadnicks from California that were planning to travel to some convention early in the morning, but received an urgent telephone from the Lubavitch Rebbe’s office to set off immediately.

Yet a third reason is that although the desert is a wasteland, nevertheless G-d provided the Jewish people with food, water, clothing, and housing, telling us that in order to learn Torah one must trust in G-d for his livelihood.
