The Beis Medrash — Chukas 5784

Выпуск: The Beis Medrash — Chukas 5784. Темы: не определены автоматически. Here’s one example: In the winter of 5732 (1972), while talking about the importance of having large families, the Rebbe said that there are those who make “calculation of the world,” that perhaps the world doesn’t have ample resources to provide for more people. During that same talk, the Rebbe addressed the horrific gzeirah of mihu Yehudi and said that one of the “arguments” for allowing non-Jews to be considered “Yidden” is so that we can fill the world with more “Yidden,” being that we lost so many Yidden in the Holocaust, R”l. That’s when it’s time to remember: Don’t make calculations of the world, including thoughts like, “What will they think of me?!” Instead, make a calculation of, “What does the world need from me?!” Likewise, concerning the safety and security of Yidden in Eretz Hakodesh, the calculation should never be, “What will the world say?” but rather, “Is this what Hashem wants? Will this action bring salvation closer?” May all our efforts in following the Rebbe’s teachings bring about the culmination of the avodah of all Yidden throughout history and finally bring “yeshuah v’hatzalah” to the entire world! The Gemara explains this to mean that those who are ‫מושלים‬, who dominate over their yetzer hara, say to themselves, ‫באו ונחשוב חשבונו של עולם‬, let us make a calculation of the happenings of this world. Many people ask, “Did the Rebbe leave his chassidim with instruction for how to carry on after Gimmel Tammuz?” In this week’s sedra it says ‫על יאמרו המושלים באו חשבון‬. The term ‫ באו ונחשוב חשבונו של עולם‬has since been borrowed in other contexts, including to prepare for the time when a person passes on from this world.

Chazal say that everyone must view the entire world as though it’s on a perfect balance, and one mitzvah can tip the scale and bring salvation to the whole world. A person may have the attitude of: “I’m doing my obligations to Hashem and it’s not my responsibility to be concerned with what another Yid is or isn’t doing.
