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.
23 Adar II 5787
My father once said to a Rav,[1] who labored in avoda and was an especially diligent scholar: A Rav must remember at all times and at every moment that he always stands on the threshold between being one of those who bring merit to the public and, G‑d forbid, one of those who cause the public to sin - the threshold between the loftiest of heights and the most abysmal depth. All issues must touch him at the innermost core of his soul, literally, because his very soul is at stake.
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.
"Senior Rabbi"; a practising Halachic (Torah-law) authority in a congregation, city. etc.

אאמו"ר [אדוני אבי מורי ורבי] אמר לרב אחד - בעל עבודה ומתמיד בלימודו: א רב בעדארף בכל עת ובכל רגע געדיינקען, אז תמיד שטייט ער אויף דעם שוועל וואס צווישען מזכי הרבים און ח"ו [חס ושלום] מחטיאי הרבים, אויף דעם שוועל פון עומק רום און עומק תחת, און אלע ענינים בעדארף נוגע זיין אין פנימית נקודת הנפש ממש, ווייל בנפשו הוא.
