Where can we experience Hashem's presence?




SimchaMinute

A quotation-a-day by Rabbi Avigdor Miller

Even now when the Sanctuary has been destroyed, opportunities [to be close to Him] are still available. Because the Shechinah dwells among the people of Israel (Bamidbar 35:34), anyone who joins the holy nation (Dvarim 7:6) is in proximity to Hashem; and those who together uphold His service in Yeshivos and synagogues and in loyal observant congregations are thereby close to Hashem "Who dwells amidst the sons of Israel". — Fortunate Nation

Chovos Halevavos has become the foundation for Jews in their service of Hashem. Great Torah luminaries, e.g. Rabbi Yosef Karo, Rabbi Yitzchak Luria, the Vilna Gaon and Rabbi Elimelech of Lizhensk immersed themselves in the sefer and encouraged others to do likewise. Simchas Hachaim Publishing is publishing Chovos Halevavos with Rabbi Avigdor Miller’s insights.
