Prayer For Nepal
ย Lord of the Universe, I beg You To Redeem Israel, But If You Do Not Want To Do That, Then I Beg You To Redeem The Gentiles
ย Rabbi Israel Hopstein
The Maggid of Kozhnitz(1737-1814)
***
The tendency prevalent in much of the contemporary Torah worldโฆ of almost total obliviousness to non-Jewish suffering is shamefully deplorable..
The insouciance springs, in part, from failure โฆ grounded in a blend of ignorance and prejudice, to appreciate the scope and value of Gentile Avodat HaShem anpirituality.
Rabbi Aharon Lichtenstein. Ztzโl
Former Rosh HaYeshiva of Yeshivat Har Etzion, Israel
โWhither Philanthropyโ, 2010
