23. Chazkel to Charlie Za"l
Listen now
Description
Chazkel (Charlie) Roth was born in 1925 to a Chassidic family. He was a part of the first batch of students in the first Chabad Yeshiva on American Shores. Our recorded recollections of his, published here for the first time, paint a loving and colorful picture.  Charlie became agnostic later in his life but still remained in warm contact with his Jewishness and the Chabad community.  Like many other ‘hippie-Jews’ he rediscovered the depth of his religious birthright by identifying the parallels between the humanistic psychology and Jewish mysticism.  Join Dovid and Adam as we remember an interesting life and a beautiful soul. May the Neshama of Yechezkel ben Meir Hillel have an Aliya.  Music by: Shlomo Carlebach and ZionLight. Experience the Rebbe's Farbrengen here.
