Lesson summary AI-generated
- A lesson on the haftarah of Vayikra, in which most of the class discusses the song “Dayenu” and a Chassidic talk by the Rebbe about it.
- The line “had He brought us close to Mount Sinai and not given us the Torah, it would have been enough” teaches that being brought close to Sinai is a gift in itself.
- Why we thank God specifically for bringing us close to Mount Sinai: the unity of the Jewish people when they stood there.
- The lesson raises the contrast between that unity and hatred, with the Rebbe’s teaching on what remains from that moment today.
