The famous slogan "Let My People Go" became a rallying cry for Jews worldwide in the 1970s, advocating for the release of Soviet Jewry. However, as the Rebbe reminded us, the slogan's full meaning—"so that they may serve Me"—was often overlooked. This sermon explores the deeper significance of this missing line and the importance of spiritual liberation alongside physical freedom. Drawing parallels with Moshe Dayan's speech during the War of Attrition, the Rebbe emphasized that our strength lies not only in action but in unwavering faith that "G-d is with us," the ultimate source of courage and victory.

Key Takeaways:

1. Complete the Mission: Physical freedom is essential, but it is only complete when coupled with the ability to observe Torah and mitzvot.
2. Spiritual Liberation: True freedom is achieved when Jews can live fully as Jews, celebrating traditions, and passing them on to future generations.
3. Faith Over Fear: In the face of overwhelming challenges, the Jewish people have always drawn strength from the belief that G-d is with them.
4. The Power of the Full Verse: Understanding and embracing the full context of Torah teachings strengthens our resolve and gives purpose to our actions.
