Letter & Spirit: The ‘Why’ of Our Challenges
In this week’s edition of Letter and Spirit, as we read in this week’s Parsha about the descent of Yaakov to Mitzrayim and the beginning of our first golus, we present an in-depth letter of the Rebbe in which he explains the “why” of personal challenges, as well as the communal challenges of our people, as experienced in golus. The letter was written in English through the Rebbe’s trusted secretary Rabbi Nissan Mindel, and was made available by the latter’s son-in-law, Rabbi Sholom Ber Shapiro.
