Behaalotecha

This discourse was delivered by the Rebbe on Shabbat Parshat Behaalotecha, 5729 (1969). The Midrash states that G-d says to each Jew: 'My lamp is in your hands, and your lamp is in My hands', meaning G-d's Torah is entrusted to us, and our soul is in G-d's hands. The discourse explores the mutual relationship between the soul's light and the light of Torah, showing how guarding one ensures the other flourishes.
