Impactful Moments Behind the Scenes with The Lubavitcher Rebbe & Rebbetzin: With Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky
Send us a textIn honor of Chaf Beit Shvat, the Lubavitcher Rebbes wife, Rebbitzen Chaya Mushka’s 34th Yahrtzeit, we are honored to share an incredible conversation with Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky, with a glimpse of the behind the scenes life of the Rebbe and Rebbetzin and the lessons we can take from them. Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky , was born in Boston, Massachusetts. In 1946 he began his studies at the Lubavitch Yeshiva in New York where, shortly before his marriage, he received his rabbinical ordination. In 1957, Rabbi Krinsky was appointed to the secretariat of the Lubavitcher Rebbe. The Rebbe later appointed him as secretary and officer of his three umbrella Chabad-Lubavitch organizations: Machne Israel, Merkos L’inyonei Chinuch and Agudas Chabad. He now serves as Chairman of the Board. Rabbi Krinsky also served as spokesman for the Rebbe and the Lubavitch movement, and editor of the Lubavitch News Service. As personal driver for the Rebbe, he had the unique distinction of spending hundreds of hours alone with the Rebbe. In 1988, the Rebbe appointed him as the sole executor of his will. In 2007, Newsweek Magazine named Rabbi Krinsky to the top of a list of “America's top 50 Rabbis.”Rabbi Krinsky lives in Brooklyn, New York.*Please note two corrections:1. Rabbi Krinsky’s brother was a navigator during the war, (not an aviator)2. In the story regarding the Phoenix bird, the Rebbe took out the Sefer/book of Iyuv, (not Mishley.)You can donate today to the foundation the Rebbe made in honor of the Rebbitzen for women in need around the world.
