Title | Rus & Orpo |
Summary | Elimelech had everything - family, wealth etc but lost it all - yet Rus, who "came from nothing" - prospered and had the ultimate descendant anyone could wish for. Why was this? It boils down to Chessed - from Chessed we don't lose! This is one of the main themes of this Shiur. What caused Orpoh to commit immorality? Listen to a powerful vort from Reb Chaim Kaufman zt"l on this point, along with some other of his excerpts on related issues. Rav Dessler writes that sometimes a person is infused with a Yetzer Hora with twisted logic - stating that if I am less Tzenius, I will be more successful - but as we see from the story of Rus, nothing could be further from the truth...! |
