A 76-year-old man in Philadelphia’s Rittenhouse Square rolled up his sleeve on Sunday morning and put on tefillin for the first time in his life. Around him, crowds sang Jewish songs loud enough to drown out the protest passing by, while lines stretched around the block to support Jewish-owned businesses. The Jewish community had come to answer a bicycle “boycott ride” aimed at six Jewish-owned businesses in the neighborhood.
Less than 24 hours after a woman followed him along a Manhattan sidewalk and stabbed him in the back, Chabad rabbinical student Yosef was back in Midtown dropping in on Jewish merchants and craftsmen in the Diamond District to help them don tefillin. The attack, in which the unknown assailant plunged what is believed to be a large syringe into his back, left him bloody but not afraid.
