God's Portion: His People
The Baal Shem Tov taught: ''The quality of essence is such that as soon as one grasps a tiny part of the essence, one grasps the whole of it.''
Thus it follows, that since all Jews [''His people''] have a Godly soul which is ''literally a portion of God above'' [Tanya Ch.2] - ''God's portion'' - then even when that soul undergoes the long journey downwards to this world, it remains inseparably bound with the Essence of God. [See Ha'azinu 32:9]
Based on Sefer Hama'amarim 5735 p.243 Lubavitcher Rebbe

is this written in the book of Torah or is this just a teaching of the Lubavitcher Rebbe?
ReplyDeleteIt's from the Torah and from the Tanya. Click the links to the Tanya and Ha'azinu 32:9. It is the Rebbe's words speaking about the topic.
