Reply To: Relive Hakhel!

GadolHadofi,

There’s no point in rehashing old endless discussions and arguments. Too much ink has been spilled in YWNCR on the “Who is a greater gadol” competition.

I feel that if someone respectfully posted a request “to all of klal yisroel” from his own, unknown Rosh Yeshiva or teacher (e.g. to say a certain kapital of Tehilim every day, to use out a certain day to give extra tzedaka, etc.) – no one would bat an eyelid. Some people would be inspired to follow, others would ignore it and move on in life.

I cannot fathom why people are so disturbed from my posting the call of the Lubavitcher Rebbe to add in achdus in honor of shnas hakhel. If it doesn’t interest you, move on to the next subject.

I don’t know. Maybe now that we are so close to the geula, the satan is using every means at his desposal to sow machlokes among Yidden.

May Hashem help us overcome this stumbling block and merit the Geula shleima, וקהל גדול ישובו הנה.
