This week’s program: In the Haftorah of the first day Rosh Hashon, Did Eil HaCohen make a “mistake”?
Weekly story: When the Rebbe said “An Easy Delivery”
Thanks for your dvar torah! I would think that Chana seemed completely righteous, here. It was on Rosh Hashana, so she understood that she shouldn’t daven for her personal benefit. Therefore, she davened silently, without saying a word about her own personal request. Rather, she said the answer in her heart and not out loud. Are we not allowed to cry over our own requests during davening on Rosh Hashana, even if we don’t say a single word about it?
