Torah
A thought for every day of the Hebrew year, from the Rebbe’s book. It is the same entry every year, on the same Hebrew date.
8 Sh'vat 5787
In these days especially, when by G‑d's kindness we stand at the threshold of redemption, we must make every conceivable effort to strengthen every facet of our religion. Mitzvot must be observed b'hidur, with "beauty," beyond minimal requirements. Customs must be kept scrupulously, nothing compromised. It is a Mitzva and duty of every Rabbi in Israel to inform his congregation that the current tribulations and agonies are the "birth-pangs of Mashiach." G‑d is demanding that we return to Torah and mitzvot, that we not hinder the imminent coming of our righteous Mashiach.
Compiled and arranged by the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of righteous memory, in 5703 (1943) from the talks and letters of the sixth Chabad Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, of righteous memory.
בפרט בזמן הזה אשר בחסדי השי"ת [השם יתברך] אנו עומדים על סף הגאולה, עלינו להתאמץ בכל מיני אימוץ, לחזק כל עניני הדת בהידור מצוה, ולשמור את כל המנהגים מבלי לוותר אף כל שהוא, ומצוה וחובה על כל רב בישראל, להודיע לקהל עדתו כי הצרות והיסורים חבלי משיח המה, וה"א [וה' אלקנו] דורש מאתנו תשובה לתומ"צ [לתורה ומצות], שלא נעכב ביאת משיח צדקנו בקרוב ממש.
