'''Mivtza Tefillin''' is the first of [[The Ten Mivtzoim]] which the [[Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson (כ"ק אדמו"ר שליט"א)|Rebbe]] announced in 1967 (5727).

The [[Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson (כ"ק אדמו"ר שליט"א)|Rebbe]] called upon all Chabad Chassidim to help every Jew put on tefiliin every weekday.
== Establishment of the Mivtza ==
On [[Shabbos Mevorchim]] of the [[Month of Sivan]], parshas Bamidbar in the year [[1927 (5727)|1927]] ([[1927 (5727)|5727]]), a few days before the outbreak of the [[Six-Day War]], a time when Jews were under great tension and in a stress - the Rebbe spoke at the [[Farbrengen (Gathering) With The Rebbe|farbrengen]] in the afternoon, and turned to the Chassidim with a call to go out to the "streets of the city" and help Jews with the Zechus of putting on tefillin, which is a mitzvah that is equivalent to the entire Torah and has a special merit for ensuring the victory of the Jewish nation in war.

Regarding the Mitzvah of tefillin, the Rebbe quoted the Gemara "whoever lays tefillin lengthens their days". Additionally, our sages of blessed memory said that the verse "And all the nations of the world will see that the name of Hashem is called upon you - and they will fear you" ("וראו כל עמי הארץ כי שם ה' נקרא עליך - ויראו ממך") - this is referring to the tefillin of the head<ref> Berachos: 6a </ref>. Therefore, putting on tefillin is a merit for longevity and victory in war by instilling fear on the enemies. And for this reason it is the duty to help every Jew with this important mitzvah, especially the soldiers who are going to the battlefield.

In the days leading up to the war, the words of the Rebbe served as an encouragement to all the Jews around the world. He said that when [[Hakadosh Baruch Hu (G-d)|Hakadosh Baruch Hu]] (G-d) conducts war, the enemy is completely nullified, and then the verse "Not one person will be missing" ("לא נפקד ממנו איש") is fulfilled - meaning all Jews remain complete.

As a result, immediately after [[Shabbos]] ended, this [[Sicha]] was published in [[The Land of Israel|Israel]] and the world, and the next day this big Mivtza began, encompassing the entire Jewish nation, from the young age of [[Bar Mitzvah|bar mitzvah]].

== Continuation of the Mivtza ==
After the victory of the war and the great miracles which occurred, Chabad Chassidim around the world continued with mivtza tefillin, with the encouragement of the Rebbe.

In the meantime there were those who asked the Rebbe why should this mivtza continue, after all, the war ended with a great victory? the Rebbe responded on the [[15th of Teves]] [[1928 (5728)|1928]], that indeed the war ended with great victory, however there are still enemies standing at the border of Israel from all directions, intending to destroy the Jews r"l, only the fear and awe is what's holding them back. And there is another great danger that "From the north, it will open" etc. (referring to the threat from the northern border) G-d forbid, and this danger has grown since the war, however it is not the job of a Rebbe to get Jews scared - rather to awaken and encourage them that everything depends on Teshuvah and good deeds which every Jew is capable of doing, and specifically a mitzvah which instills fear and awe on the enemies like the mitzvah if tefillin.

To encourage the continuation of this mivtza - prominent leaders from Orthodox communities including Rebbes, Rabbis and the heads of Yeshivos, joined and signed a proclamation calling all frum Jews to take action, and join in the continuation of the mivtza.

Three years since the mivtza began, on [[Lag BaOmer]] [[1970 (5730)|1970]] ([[1970 (5730)|5730]]), the yearly parade took place in front of 770. The Rebbe delivered a sicha to thousands of children and adults who attended the parade, and he said: since we have seen that since Lag BaOmer three years ago, when it was spoken about the promise of [[Hakadosh Baruch Hu (G-d)|Hakadosh Baruch Hu]] in his Torah that, "and I will give piece in the land" ("ונתתי שלום בארץ"), "you will dwell safely in your land ("וישבתם לבטח בארצכם"), and it was announced to add in the mitzvah of tefillin, which has saved thousands and tens of thousands of Jews who are alive and well to this day, and they will live long lives.

== Expressions and Instructions ==
In a number places the Rebbe connects 'Mivtza Tefillin' with what it brought in the name of [[The Baal Shem Tov]] on the words of the gemara that in Hashem's tefillin it says "who is like your people, Israel, one nation in the land" ("מי כעמך כישראל גוי אחד בארץ"). There are two types of tefillin, tefillin of the hand and tefillin of the head. The tefillin of the head symbolize the Jews who study Torah in depth, while the hand tefillin symbolize the simple Jews whose service of Hashem is expressed especially in simple actions, and according Halacha we put on the hand tefillin first, being that the primary pleasure above comes from the service of Hashem from these simple Jews.

The Rebbe expressed about himself: "I am passionate about Mivtza Tefillin" ("קאָך איך זיך במבצע תפילין").

The reason why specifically the mitzvah of tefillin was chosen to be a "Mivtza", the Rebbe himself explained is because it is a "General Mitzvah" ("מצוה כללית"), like our sages say that "the entire Torah is compared to tefillin" ("הוקשה כל התורה כולה לתפילין"), and also it is one of the first mitzvos which our ancestors took upon themselves in Egypt.

=== Instructions ===
(Partial list)
* The Rebbe instructed that Yeshiva students should only go out on Mivtza Tefillin in their free time and not during [[Seder|Sedorim]] (Yeshiva hours), on the contrary the Rebbe expressed that someone who says otherwise is not only not my [[Shliach]] (emissary) rather he is acting against me and against my instruction and against the [[Rebbe Rayatz]] and against the [[Rebbe Rashab]] who founded [[Tomchei Temimim]].
* To go out on [[mivtzoim]] only with a partner, not alone.
* To go with food and drink in order to give people so they can make a Brachah (blessing).
* Not to go in the first or last cart in the subway.

== The Halachic Controversy Surrounding the Mivtza ==
After the announcement of the mivtza, there was opposition from various circles, primarily Charedim, through various ways both orally and in writing. For a long time the Rebbe refrained from addressing these claims, but after a half a year the Rebbe said he decided to respond to these claims. The first time the Rebbe publicly addressed these claims was at the [[Farbrengen (Gathering) With The Rebbe|farbrengen]] (gathering) on [[Shabbos Bereshis|shabbos Bereshis]] [[1928 (5728)|1928]] ([[1928 (5728)|5728]]). The Rebbe said that these claims are very encouraging, because anything holy that is revealed in this world faces opposition, and if this wouldn't have happened, it would greatly worry him, he the went on to answer the questions.

Among other things the Rebbe emphasized that this mivtza is a fulfillment of the Mitzvah of [[Rebuke]] (תוכחה) by reminding a Jew to put on tefillin and encouraging him to observe it.

The Ten Mivtzoim

2024-10-13T04:41:22Z

{{Template:The rebbe's Mivtzoim}}
'''The Ten Mivtzoim''' are ten commandments that the Rebbe chose to emphasize and promote in order to awaken the people. This is the reason the name 'Mivtza' (campaign) was chosen, indicating a departure from routine.
[[file:Illustrative symbols of the Ten Mivtzoim.jpeg|250px|thumb|left|Illustrative symbols of [[The Ten Mivtzoim]]]]

== Background ==
From the very beginning of his leadership, the Rebbe passionately engaged in spreading Judaism and the wellsprings of Chassidus, inscribing the motto 'Ufaratzta' on his banner.

In continuation of this, the Rebbe initiated these special 'Mivtzoim' (campaigns) to awaken Jews to perform practical commandments, being that 'one mitzvah leads to another mitzvah,' as a result of the great awakening that the Rebbe inspired.

These campaigns were carefully chosen by him, being 'general commandments' that should be observed with greater meticulousness and urgency than any other commandment, because the observance of these commandments by every Jew is more relevant to each individual Jew and to the entire Jewish people as a whole.

In one of the letters<ref> Letter to the student of Yeshivas Tomchei Temimim in Montreal, the end of the month of Sivan 5734 - Likkutei Sichos volume 13 page 205. </ref> the Rebbe connected the Ten Campaigns with what is written in Seforim, that the second letters of the names of the patriarchs Avraham, Yitzchok, and Yaakov (א'''ב'''רהם י'''צ'''חק וי'''ע'''קב) spell 'בצע,' which is related to the Ten Campaigns. The Rebbe explained that the main focus of these campaigns is the practical aspect, as it matches the root 'בצע,' which signifies conclusion and completion<ref> Sicha from Parshas Shelach the 25th of Sivan 5734. </ref>.

== Stages of Foundation ==
The first campaign was '[[Mivtza Tefillin]],' which the Rebbe announced prior to the Six-Day War in 1967 (5727), as a spiritual merit for the salvation of the Jews in the Holy Land.

In the year 1971 (5731), the Rebbe announced '[[Mivtza Torah]].'

In the year 1974 (5734), the Rebbe announced the campaigns: '[[Mivtza Mezuzah]],' '[[Mivtza Tzedakah]],' '[[Mivtza Bayis Molei Seforim]],' '[[Mivtza Neiros Shabbos Kodesh]],'

In the year 1975 (5735), the Rebbe announced the campaigns: '[[Mivtza Kashrus]],' '[[Mivtza Taharas Hamishpacha]].'

In the year 1976 (5736), the Rebbe announced the campaigns: '[[Mivtza Chinuch]],' '[[Mivtza Ahavas Yisroel]] and [[Achdus Yisroel]].'

From then until the mid-'80s, in most gatherings, the Rebbe listed the Ten Mivtzoim. Later, the Mivtza of '[[Ois B'sefer Torah]]' was also added.

== Defense and Rescue Mivtzoim ==
In the year 1974 (5734), the 'Tzaddik from Ra'anana,' Rabbi Yitzchak Huberman, expressed that there would be bloodshed in Israel that year, when the year passed and nothing happened, he was asked to explain this, and he replied that, indeed he saw that this year was supposed to be very difficult for the Jewish nation, but in the merit of the Mivtzoim of the Rebbe which were announced throughout the year, the decree was annulled, and the bloodshed 'moved' to Cyprus, where a fierce war broke out following the Turkish army's invasion.
The Rebbe, in his talks and letters, connected the campaigns themselves to protection and salvation, based on the teachings of our sages (רז"ל).

* '''[[Mivtza Torah]]''' - Torah saves and protects<ref> Sotah 21a.</ref> (תורה מגנא ומצלא).
* '''[[Mivtza Tefillin]]''' - Tefillin cause the nations of the world to fear the Jewish people as it says: "and they will fear you"<ref> Brachos 6a.</ref> (ויראו ממך).
* '''[[Mivtza Mezuzah]]''' - A mezuzah ensures that "Hashem will guard your going out and your coming in from now and for all time," ("השם ישמור צאתך ובואך מעתה ועד עולם") and it is the custom to inscribe the name 'ש-ד-י' on the Mezuzah which stands for "שומר דלתות ישראל".
* '''[[Mivtza Tzedakah]]''' - Charity increases protection, as the promise of Hashem just as you give life to the poor so too Hashem will give life to you <ref> Midrash Tanchuma, Mishpatim 15: 1. </ref>.
* '''[[Mivtza Bayis Molei Seforim]]''' - Just as a Mezuzah protects the home so too does a house full of Seforim - and in the broader sense, the essence of the house transforms into a house of Torah - making it a house which is more guarded and protected <ref> Bamidbar Rabbah beginning of Parshas Korach. </ref>.
* '''[[Mivtza Sefer Torah Haklali]]''' - It is not one of the Ten Mivtzoim but it does provide protection, defense, and success to someone which has a letter in this Sefer Torah.

== Additional Mivtzoim ==
Even before these Mivtzoim started the made sure that yidden would be able to fulfill mitzvos of various yomim tovim, however this of course increased with greater enthusiasm afterward.

These mivtzoim include "[[Mivtza Shofar]]", "[[Mivtza Matzah]]", "[[Mivtza Lulav]]", "[[Mivtza Purim]]", and "[[Mivtza Chanukah]]".

After these ten mivtoim were established, the Rebbe added over the years the mivtzoim: "[[Shleimus Ha’aretz]]" "[[Mihu Yehudi]]" "[[Moment of Silence]]" "[[The 7 Noahide Laws]]" "[[Ois B'sefer Torah]]" "[[Mivtza Hakhel|Hakhel]]" "[[Mivtza Yom Huledes|Yom Huledes]]".

These Mivtzoim reached the public through the Rebbe's Shluchim (emissaries) in every place.

=== Mivtza Moshiach ===
In the year 5752, in the Sicha at the [[International Conference of Shluchim]] the Rebbe said that the gateway to all matters of Shlichus is "[[to welcome Moshiach tzidkeinu]]" ("קבלת פני משיח צדקנו") and therefore all matters of Shlichus must be permeated with this idea.

'''The Ten Mivtzoim''' are ten commandments that the Rebbe chose to emphasize and promote loudly in order to awaken the people. This is the reason the name 'Mivtza' (campaign) was chosen, indicating a departure from routine.

== Background ==
From the very beginning of his leadership, the Rebbe passionately engaged in spreading Judaism and the wellsprings of Chassidus, inscribing the motto 'Ufaratzta' on his banner.

In continuation of this, the Rebbe initiated these special 'Mivtzoim' (campaigns) to awaken Jews to perform practical commandments, with the idea that 'one mitzvah leads to another mitzvah,' as a result of the great awakening that the Rebbe inspired.

These campaigns were carefully chosen by him, being 'general commandments' that should be observed with greater meticulousness and urgency than any other commandment, because the observance of these commandments by every Jew is more relevant to each individual Jew and to the entire Jewish people as a whole.

In one of the letters, the Rebbe connected the Ten Campaigns with what is written in Seforim, that the second letters of the names of the patriarchs Avraham, Yitzchok, and Yaakov (א'''ב'''רהם י'''צ'''חק וי'''ע'''קב) spell 'בצע,' which is related to the Ten Campaigns. The Rebbe explained that the main focus of these campaigns is the practical aspect, as it matches the root 'בצע,' which signifies conclusion and completion.

== Stages of Foundation ==
The first campaign was 'Mivtza Tefillin,' which the Rebbe announced prior to the Six-Day War in 1967 (5727), as a spiritual merit for the salvation of the Jews in the Holy Land.

In the year 1971 (5731), the Rebbe announced 'Mivtza Torah.'

In the year 1974 (5734), the Rebbe announced the campaigns: 'Mivtza Mezuzah,' 'Mivtza Tzedakah,' 'Mivtza Bayis Molei Seforim,' 'Mivtza Neiros Shabbos Kodesh,'

In the year 1975 (5735), the Rebbe announced the campaigns: 'Mivtza Kashrus,' 'Mivtza Taharas Hamishpacha.'

In the year 1976 (5736), the Rebbe announced the campaigns: 'Mivtza Chinuch,' 'Mivtza Ahavas Yisroel and Achdus Yisroel.'

From then until the mid-'80s, in most gatherings, the Rebbe listed the Ten Mivtzoim. Later, the Mivtza of 'אות בספר תורה' was also added.
