Parshas Vayeirah (5762)
We can’t neglect to relate to today’s loss of our Gadol Hador, Harav Shach zt”l. Many don’t know that he was a talmid muvhak of the giant of Torah of our generation, the Brisker Rav. Every criticism he expressed concerning R’ Velvel’s Torah was cherished by R’ Velvel as a gem. In his son-in-law’s hesped, he read Rav Shach’s tzavaa, in which he expressed his love for Klal Yisroel and his talmidim and his extreme mesiras nefesh for them. Torah and Chessed. The theme of our parsha is Avraham Avinu’s chessed. The formula for existence in this period before Moshiach is to preoccupy ourselves with Torah and Chessed.
Have a wonderful Shabbos.
