Bob Dylan (born Robert Allen Zimmerman; 
May 24, 1941) is an American
singer-songwriter, poet, and painter. 
He has been a major figure in music
for five decades.

After a short Christian and Gospel period,
with the discs " Slow train
coming" " Saved" and "Shot of Love" , 
Bob Dylan came in Jerusalem in 1983
for his son's Jakob Dylan Bar Mitsva.
Then he recorded his most Jewish album
" Infidels" with Mark Knopfler, Mick 
Taylor and two Bob Marley's musicians.

According to the Sue Fishkoff book
" The Rebbe's Army" p.167, Bob Dylan is
one of the biggest names associated
with Chabad. In the early 1980s, Chabad
" rescued" Dylan from a brief flirtation 
with Christianity, and for several
years, Bylan studied with Minneapolis 
Rabbis Manis Friedman and Moshe
Feller, whom he visited also for 
Shabbat dinners. Dylan made surprise
appereance at the 1988 and 1989 
Chabad telethons, once playing " Hava
Negila" out of tune on the harmonica.

Dylan prays at Chabad High Holidays in
Encino, California, next to his house
in Malibu. In 2001 he was honored with an
Alyah to the Torah on Yom Kippur
morning. Bob Dylan came to the Rabbi of
Lubavitch ZTS"L for Sunday dollars
for  more than a dozen times . He gave
$ 100,000 for a Chabad building in
Minessota named after his father Z"L.
Bob Dylan is one of the most important
contributors to the Chabad movement.
