Jewish History

The 20th of Sivan is the anniversary of the first blood libel in France. On this date in 1171, tens of Jewish men and women were burned alive in the French town of Blois on the infamous accusation that Jews used to the blood of Christian children in the preparation of matzot for Passover. For a detailed account see link below.

Daily Thought

“The man Moses was more humble than any human being on the face of the earth.” (Numbers 12:3)

Moses didn’t fool himself. He knew how good he was. He knew he stood on a level beyond any other human being. Yet he was humbled before them.

Because he knew that all that he had achieved was only with the capabilities given to him from Above. He figured that if someone else were given these same capabilities, that person would achieve as much as him.

And who knows, perhaps someone else would have used those capabilities to their fullest and achieved even more.

Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, Sefer Hamaamarim 5710, pg. 236.
