"If the non-Jewish public is even vaguely aware of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement, it's probably because its annual telethon draws celebrities including Adam Sandler, Michael Douglas, James Caan, Whoopi Goldberg and Anthony Hopkins. But within the Jewish world, this small branch of Judaism is generating outsized levels of interest--and concern." (LOS ANGELES TIMES) This article examines the growth of Chabad-Lubavitch Judaism and its work in fostering Judaism, as well as its controversial messianic beliefs.
