To receive weekly divrei Torah by Rabbi Lipskier, subscribe to our WhatsApp group by saving 347-620-2063 to your contacts and then WhatsApping the word "Subscribe." 2 See Kli Yakar of Terumah 25:17, Sichos Kodesh 5741 of Parshas Terumah, and others. Perhaps the message is that when it comes to making chinuch decisions in our mosdos—our aron hakodesh—we must remember the devastation that comes when baalei batim take things into their own hands instead of seeking out da’as Torah. The Rebbe quoted the famous words of Sefer Me’iras Einayim: “The opinions of the baalei baatim contradict those of the Torah!” To be sure, the Rebbe explained, baalei baatim are often talmidei chachamim and refined people. Perhaps the message to be learned is that when it comes to chinuch we can’t expect to throw our “gold,” i.e., our pure and holy children, into a mosad chinuch and expect things to work out automatically. * * * Chazal tell us that Moshe Rabbeinu was unable to build the Menorah from a single piece of gold, so Hashem instructed him to throw the block of gold into the fire and it miraculously molded itself. Parenthetically, the Rebbe continued, since we can learn a lesson from everyone, it would serve us well to learn a lesson from the Reform and Conservative movements in this regard. 3 It’s surprising, therefore, that although the keruvim also had to be made from one piece of gold, Hashem didn’t provide the option of throwing the gold into the fire as well. 1 23:25 Seforim explain that the aron—which housed the luchos—and the keruvim—which had faces like a young boy and girl—symbolize the idea of teaching and learning Torah. If we notice that the mosad is making decisions based on the opinions of baalei batim and not daas Torah, we have an obligation to reach out to them and demand better.
