Parshas Ki Seesa (5765)
By Mordechai Dolinsky
The positive side of the ‘chet haegel” in our parsha was the clarity that Clal Yisroel possessed in the absolute necessity of not going for a moment without a leader that was definitely “connected Above”.
The question is how we relate to this issue. Do we feel terribly distressed at not having the accessibility to true guidance? Perhaps we have become callous to the issues and areas that require “daas Torah”. What country to settle in…. When to leave Kollel…. What cheder should our children attend…At what age should our daughters start on the road to finding a marriage partner…
Do we have too much peace of mind? Perhaps the proper mindset would be standing on a skyscraper missing the floor under our feet and hysterically stressed at the prospect of missing the guidance of a leader that we have the absolute confidence in that he is connected Above.
Forgive me for disturbing your peace but perhaps this will bring Mashiach.
Have a wonderful Shabbos.
