Rabbi Yosef Hartman, a tireless Lubavitch activist from the southern Israeli city of Kiryat Malachi, spent hours this week visiting IDF bases offering soldiers and commanders to bless on the Lulav and Esrog.
“I’d like to bless on the Lulav,” he was asked by one soldier.
Hartman had a slight suspicion that the fellow was not Jewish, which was confirmed when the fellow informed him that he hails from Rahat, a Bedouin city near Beer Sheva.
“Well,” Hartman answered, “The good deeds you need to do are the Seven Laws of Noah.”
