Every Yid, man or woman, has the moral and spiritual power to become a source of influence for his friends and associates, and to situate them in a ray of light.” The Frierdiker Rebbe writes 3 that just as stars seem small and inconsequential when situated alone in the vast night sky yet shine brightly when clustered in a galaxy, Yidden, too, shine much brighter when gathered in unity.

That is how [many] your descendant will be.” The simple meaning is that the Yidden will be as many as the stars, but Reb Meir interpreted it this way: Counting the stars is an impossible task. As the war continues, more and more horrific stories of pain and suffering emerge R”l, but there are also stories of Yidden in Eretz Yisroel who are becoming stronger and prouder. Reb Meir quoted a passuk in this week’s sedra where Hashem took Avraham Avinu outside and said: “Please look heavenward and count the stars, if you are able to. Hashem’s promise to Avraham Avinu was that our galus will eventually end and we’ll have the ultimate end to all pain and suffering with the coming of Moshiach. The Baal Shem Tov says that Yidden are compared to the stars because, like stars, they look small from afar, but are so much larger up close. Nonetheless, I am humbled by these Yidden and inspired to take a sharper look at myself and make real improvements in my Yiddishkeit. People who grew up knowing nothing about Yiddishkeit have now begun keeping Shabbos, putting on tefillin or dressing more modestly.
