Parshas Nitzavim – Vayelech (5771)
by Mordechai Dolinsky
31:7 Rashi explains that Moshe tells Yehoshua and insists that he confers with the zekanim. However Hashem Himself instructs Yehoshua to do as he understands. This can be explained that Moshe had this special Siyata DiShmaya of a oneness with Hashem and he could project that he was unique; the only one that would have it. Only Hashem Himself knew that He would give it to Yehoshua.
Let us cling to our leaders for their Divine conection.
29:18 It is shocking the midas hadin for the individual that is guilty of hefkairus and prikas ohl. How much we have to have a sensitivity not to be guilty of this in this non-conventional, rebellious generation.
Rav Miller used to say all’s well that ends well — make this your best Shabbos.
