Daily Dose, Websites
DAILY DOSE:
Where Lives the Torah- Where is the Torah?
Does it reside in the heavens with the angels?
Or in a parchment scroll in the ark of the synagogue?
 Or with the rabbis and scholars?
It lives in the heart of each person who learns it,
 in the voice of the one who discusses it
 and in the life of the one who lives it.
That heart, that voice, that life --that, too, is G-d’s word.
A Daily Dose of Wisdom from the Rebbe
-words and condensation by Tzvi Freeman
