A Thought for the Week

CONCERT

A unique Torah publication, disseminated over the globe to hundreds
of thousands of Jews, is written, translated, adapted, printed, published and
disseminated from our own Detroit! This publication, the ... "THOUGHT
FOR THE WEEK," essays on the weekly 'SIRDA'—tLe Torah-reading, have
been translated into Yiddish, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Swedish and
Spanish. They have also been transposed into braille—bringing the light
of Torah to the blind. In a sense this characterizes the essential function
of the "Thought For The Week," to dispel darkness. A great man once
said: "You cannot drive darkness away by flapping a tower at it, it is
light that dissipates darkness:" even a small solitary candle drives away
a great deal of gloomy blackness. This brief Torah-Message, "A Thought
For The Week," a small but intense source of light illuminating the lives
of hundreds of thousands of our readers, can dispel the blackness of the
undesirable and unwholesome literature that unfortunately abounds in
our society.
