The Power of Charity in Igeris Hakodesh Explained


Listen Later

In the heart of Igeris Hakodesh, Letter 32 resonates with a profound message about the essence of charity, or tzedakah. Here, the Altarebbe invites us to contemplate not just the act of giving, but the very nature of our generosity. He distinguishes between two roles: the reactive giver, who responds to a need, and the proactive initiator, who inspires others to join in the act of charity. This letter emphasizes that while both are valuable, initiating charity embodies a higher spiritual calling.
