Dear Friend,
We are pleased to share insights by the Rebbe on parshat Beha'alotecha, selected from our Daily Wisdom, edited by Rabbi Moshe Wisnefsky.
❦ Focus on the Goal ❦ On 20 Iyar 2449, G-d gave the signal and the people set out from Mount Sinai. "They traveled from the mountain of G-d a distance of three days, and the ark of G-d’s covenant traveled a three-day journey ahead of them, to seek out a resting place for them." (Num. 10:33)
Our lives, too, are a journey from “the mountain of G-d” – our original point of inspiration – toward “the Promised Land” – our personal and collective redemption.
As we proceed along this journey, we must keep “the ark of G-d’s covenant” ahead of us, meaning that we should always look to the Torah for guidance. Furthermore, we must keep focused on the goal, the fact that the Torah is “seeking out a resting place for us,” meaning that no matter how settled we may become in our setting or routine during our lives, we cannot truly “rest” until we have reached the goal of transforming both our personal lives and the world at large into G-d’s ultimate home.
