About
The word "Lubavitch" is the name of the town in White Russia where the movement was based for more than a century. Appropriately, the word Lubavitch in Russian means the "city of brotherly love." The name Lubavitch conveys the essence of the responsibility and love engendered by the Chabad philosophy toward every single Jew.

Daily Thought
What Is Alef?
What is an alef? A point above, a point below, and a line between. Whatever we may understand of Him is but an infinitesimal point above. The only way we can join with Him is as an infinitesmal point below. And what empowers us to become this zero-point below that resonates with the infinite-point above? Our awe of Him, a line that connects below to above. Hayom Yom, 8 Adar I; 10 Shevat 5716.
