Dedicated for Refuah Shleimah to Yochanon Baruch ben Fruma Etta
The Everlasting Honor of Yisrael
HaShem showed great honor to Klal Yisrael by performing powerful miracles on our behalf. Amalek was resentful of the special favor that HaShem bestowed upon us. They attacked Klal Yisrael, intending to diminish our illustrious status. Yet, "When Moshe Rabenu raised his arms to Heaven, Klal Yisrael prevailed."
Lesson: When we recognize that our honor comes from HaShem and can never be taken away -- we always maintain our dignity.
App: Strengthen and enrich your dignity by recognizing that HaShem eternally grants special and everlasting honor to you -- and all Klal Yisrael.
