Темы: не определены автоматически. ‫ב"ה‬ ‫פרשת כי תשא תשפ"ג שנת הקהל‬ IT’S ALL IN YOUR HEAD This week’s d’var torah is generously sponsored by The Moshe Group The mikveh in Reb Meir of Premishlan’s town was at the foot of a steep hill and whenever the weather was bad, the hill became dangerously slippery forcing everyone to use a roundabout route. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and of course Shabbos and you still haven’t learned?!’ And children can’t be and shouldn’t be fooled by lame excuses.” Lifting our heads, said the Rebbe, also gives us confidence when we face opposition to our Yiddishkeit. When a child in this day and age (where children tend to be more chutzpadik) sees that his father doesn’t learn, he’ll question his father’s conduct: ‘No matter how important your work is, why haven’t you lifted your head this week?!

To address this, we read a little further in the sedra that the mitzvah of “Ki Sisa,” of raising our heads with Torah learning, atones for those who have transgressed the Will of Hashem. We will be stronger and more able to hold our heads high like Mordechai HaTzaddik even when others are quick to bow their heads to “Haman,” the secular ideals of today. In 5747 (1987) the Rebbe explained that in addition to the literal mitzvah of counting the Yidden, the Torah is also instructing a Yid to lift his own head. And Reb Meir famously replied, “When one is attached from above, one doesn’t fall below.” 1 This week’s sedra begins with the mitzvah to count the Yidden. As is written in the Megilah: “And many of the people of the land became Jewish.” And the Gemara says a similar idea in regards to Ki Sisa.
