FREE Publishing House Launches New Website
The FREE Publishing House has launched
JudaismInRussian.com, a
Russian-language website dedicated to servicing the Russian-Jewish immigrant
community. The website contains information on a multitude of mitzvot
such as tefillin, kashrut, shabbat, mikvah, mezuzah, and bris milah
(circumcision). The site explains the holiday laws and customs for both
the major Yomim Tovim like Pesach and Sukkot, to the less widely
known holidays like Lag BaOmer.
JudaismInRussian.com also offers a library section with complete access
to the Five Books of Moses, the Prophets, Tehillim, the Rambam's Mishnah
Torah, Tanya, Philosophy of Chabad and more. In addition, the site
features a weekly heritage column on the weekly Torah portion.
The site offers English descriptions and references alongside the Russian
text. These are proving useful to English-speaking readers, especially
rabbis and teachers who teach Russian-speaking students, reflects
Rabbi Yosef Y. Okunov, Director of the FREE Publishing
House.
JudaismInRussian.com is another innovative move by the FREE Publishing House
to meet the ever-increasing thirst for knowledge in the Russian-Jewish
community.
