At a fabrengen on 21 Av, 5744 – August 19, 1984, the Rebbe explained that the month of Elul is a time for repentance and introspection before the coming of Rosh Hashanah.
Like Reb Levi Yitzchok of Berditchev, the renowned “defender of the Jewish people,” the Rebbe stands up to those who would misuse the month of mercy to chastise and rebuke their brethren.
Thank you for this timely Shmuez. Amazing clarity and reverse Mussar. Zchuso Yogain Oleinu!
