A Bat Noach and the Long Reach of the Chofetz Chaim
by: Schvach Yid

We are all aware of the importance of the spoken word. Speech, we are told by the Kabbalists, is one of three garments of the soul. Speech possesses the ability to teach, foster and nurture, or to humiliate, desecrate and destroy. Individuals and societies can be made or broken through the application of proper versus improper speech.

A Bat Noach has been interviewed by A Simple Jew concerning her search for a religiously more meaningful life, and of the importance the teachings of the Chofetz Chaim have taken in her life and in the lives of her children. These two blogs can be found at:

The Chofetz Chaim, Rabbi Yisrael Meir Kagan, of Radin Poland, who lived from 1838 to 1933, expounded on and championed the Torah teachings of proper speech. A basic biography can be found at: http://www.torah.org/learning/halashon/ccbio.html
