SF - # Protecting the Light

The journey is beautiful

In honor of Dr. and Ms. Auro DelGiglio: With heartfelt gratitude, we wish you and your family bracha, hatzlacha, and abundant nachas!

Upon the birth of Moshe Rabbeinu, the Torah records that his mother saw "that he was good," (Shemos 2:2) and she hid him for three months. Our Sages explain that "good" refers to a miraculous illumination; when Moshe was born, a holy light filled the entire house. His family hid him not only to protect his life but to shield this Divine radiance from Egyptian eyes. They understood that this child was the long-awaited Redeemer, destined to lead Klal Yisrael out of the darkness of Egypt and into the light of freedom. Holiness requires a "fence." The more precious and sacred an entity is, the more carefully it must be guarded. Today: HaShem has entrusted you with a Neshamah (soul) that is infinitely pure and radiant. Just as Moshe’s family shielded his light from the harshness of Egypt, we must protect our spiritual integrity from influences that threaten to dim our inner glow.

SF - # Seventy Souls - Seventy Nations

The journey is beautiful

Congratulatins to Mr. Marty Baumrind! With heartfelt gratitude, we wish you and your family bracha, hatzlacha, and abundant nachas!

"And Yaacov lived in Egypt for seventeen years" (Bereishis 47:28). The powerful famine prevailed on Yaacov Avinu, forcing him to take his family out of Eretz Yisrael. Nevertheless, as Yaacov journeyed to Egypt, he feared that the pervasive impurity of Egypt would contaminate the holy souls of his family. He was concerned that if his descendants lost their spiritual vitality, they would not have the spiritual resilience to extract themselves from Egypt. Therefore, HaShem promised Yaacov, "I will descend with you to Egypt and I shall surely bring you up." Meaning, the Shechinah would accompany Yaacov Avinu to Egypt. The holy Shechinah would empower the "seventy souls" of Yaacov"s family with the spiritual strength and vibrancy needed to emerge from Egypt, whole and intact. Even more, the "seventy souls" of Yaacov's family held the power to sanctify the "seventy nations" of the world!   The holy Shechinah fortifies Klal Yisrael, the offspring of the "seventy souls," with supernatural strength to maintain their spiritual balance in every situation and environment. In addition, we -- the Jewish People -- have the power to uplift and illuminate all of mankind with the light of HaShem.  Today: Envision the "seventy souls" of Yaacov's family. Just as the Shechinah shines upon them, and gives them spiritual integrity, so too, the holy Shechinah shines upon us and surrounds us with all of its countless blessings. Sense the dynamic power of the "seventy souls" that radiates in your soul and have the awareness of being a "light unto the nations."  (Based on the commentary of the Bas Ayin) _______________________________________________________ Life Advice – עצת חיים You are welcome to ask any question and receive a personal, private response from Rabbi Zvi Miller.

SF - # Redemption In the Blink of an Eye

The journey is beautiful

In honor of Rabbi and Mrs. Howard Seif: With heartfelt gratitude, we wish you and your family bracha, hatzlacha, and abundant nachas!

Like an awe-inspiring flash of lightning that pierces the night, Hashem’s redemption comes suddenly, illuminating the deepest darkness. In an instant, it brings enlightenment, freedom, and joy. During the Egyptian exile, Klal Yisrael sank into harsh bondage and descended to the lowest levels of spiritual impurity. After centuries of suffering, there appeared to be no sign that deliverance from Pharaoh and his taskmasters was near. Yet precisely when the situation was most bleak—when hope seemed lost—Hashem redeemed Klal Yisrael in the blink of an eye. Just as Hashem lifted Klal Yisrael from the depths of darkness in a single moment, so too must we trust steadfastly that from within the darkness of our long exile, Hashem will soon reveal the light of the final redemption. As it states in Tehillim: “Redeem us, Hashem, like the flash floods that surge through the Negev”—so sudden and powerful will our redemption be. Today: Reflect upon the miracles Hashem performed at the time of the Exodus: the Ten Plagues, the splitting of the Red Sea, the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai, and the sustaining Manna in the wilderness. Let these wonders inspire us to place absolute trust in Hashem, confident that when the moment of redemption arrives, He will instantaneously reveal His light and redeem Klal Yisrael forever.
