[Guno צְבִי]

20-year-old Hasidic Jew and his father say they are ‘ready to kill Russian soldiers’; force of 400 Ukrainians poised to repel expected attack on Dnipro

And there are plenty more

The days are long gone when we just lie down and become subservient, now even Hasidim are taking up arms.I really believe Putin thought that Zelenskyy would just roll over as would the Ukrainian people

Until just a few months ago, David Cherkaskyi was finishing a degree in cybersecurity, praying at his Chabad synagogue, and posting selfies from his travels across the Jewish world.

Now, he’s standing by in his hometown of Dnipro, Ukraine, “ready to kill Russian soldiers.”

The 20-year-old Hasidic Jew and his father, Asher, are among a force of 400 Ukrainian troops poised to try to repel an attack on their eastern Ukraine city, one of several where Russian troops are expected to stage combat in the coming days.

The obligation of tefillin is mentioned four times in the Torah:


twice when recalling The Exodus from Egypt:

And it shall be for a sign for you upon your hand, and for a memorial between your eyes, that the law of the LORD may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand did the LORD bring you out of Egypt.

— Exodus 13:9
And it shall be for a sign upon your hand, and as totafot between your eyes; for with a mighty hand did the LORD bring us forth out of Egypt.

— Exodus 13:16
and twice in the shema passages:

And you shall bind them as a sign upon your arm, and they shall be as totafot between your eyes.

— Deuteronomy 6:8
You shall put these words of mine on your heart and on your soul; and you shall tie them for a sign upon your arm, and they shall be as totafot between your eyes.

— Deuteronomy 11:18
