 Q&A From Our Chabad.org Inbox (Installment #3)
How Do I Explain G-d to My Grandchildren?
Can I Thank G‑d for a Hybrid Fruit?
I heard that G‑d does not want us to create hybrid fruit. So my question is, if G‑d is not happy with this fruit, should I make a blessing before eating it?
Do Young Girls Light Shabbat and Holiday Candles?
The rabbi in my synagogue tells me that my daughter should begin lighting Shabbat candles. My very traditional grandmother disagrees. Can you please enlighten me?
How Can the 10th of Tevet Interfere With Shabbat?
This is the only Jewish fast that is observed on Friday, which means that we fast all the way up until we make kiddush.
Fasting on Yom Kippur Which Falls on Shabbat
According to chassidic teachings, Yom Kippur falling on Shabbat doesn’t “deprive” us of the pleasures which Shabbat normally affords us. Rather the extremely holy nature of Yom Kippur accomplishes the same objective . . .
When Is the Next Jubilee Year?
According to biblical law, the Jubilee is only observed when all twelve tribes of the Jewish nation are living in Israel . . .
Why Do We Still Celebrate Holidays for Two Days in the Diaspora?
Is the Yom Tov Sheini an anachronism?
Why Cover the Blood of a Slaughtered Animal?
Blood represents life, warmth and enthusiasm.
Are Songs Sung at Jewish Funerals?
Although I have not seen this explanation applied to this particular question, I think it fits . . .

The origins of the haftarah reading are somewhat vague, and several theories have been suggested . . .
