What Our Boys Need Most Today; Learning How to Deal with Our Smallness

At the Melava Malka of Lubavitch Mesivta Chicago, Motzaei Shabbos Terumah, 4 Adar, 5786, February 21, 2026, Rabbi YY Jacobson discussed the four foundations of a truly successful Yeshiva. He explored the power of deep emotional connection, and shared the last words he heard from the Lubavitcher Rebbe, one day before his stroke, during the last time he distributed dollars for charity.

The lecture, following a Shabbos of fathers and sons in the Mesivta, also addressed the deeper, spiritual meaning of Rabah "slaughtering" Reb Zeira at a Purim feast and the lesson to all the students.

The lecture began with a story about a Jew who was drunk all Adar and his justification for it. It continued to tell the story of "Es Eun Bentch," the delicatessen created by Reb Chaim Boruch Halberstam, the father of Rabbi Sholom Ber Halberstam, principal of Chicago Mesivta. It explored the differences between Noach and Abraham and told the story of Reb Chatshe Feigin, allowing all the yeshiva students to hear a Maamar by the Rebbe Reyatz, explaining how all the students are beloved and cherished.
