For thousands of us across the globe,
this coming Shabbos, Parshas Vayeishev,
is a very unique Shabbos.
And no,
not only because
Parshas Vayeishev is Shabbos Chanukah.
That happens from time to time.
I'm talking about something unique
that we have never experienced
before in our lifetime.
Up until now,
when the בעל קורא would start
reading the Parsha of Yosef
and the terrible Nisyonos that he faced,
so many of us would start
feeling a little bit guilty.
So many of us would think
about our own personal Nisyonos,
and how we're fighting this battle alone,
how difficult it is for us,
and how many נפילות
we experienced over the past year.
But this year, מוריי ורבותיי,
for so many of us,
when the בעל קורא is going
to read the story of Yosef,
and the בעל קורא will read those words,
We will begin to think
of all the successes
that we've had in the last year.
We will begin to realize
and appreciate the fact
that we're not alone in this battle.
We are fighting it together
with thousands of Yidden,
thousands of Yidden
across the world, day after day,
are fighting this battle together
against the Yetzer Hara.
And are overcoming this Yetzer Hara,
in the footsteps of Yosef HaTzaddik.
Just a year ago,
Vayimaen was launched.
And in that one year,
what an effect it has had
on us and on our lives.
But מוריי ורבותיי,
if we can picture what
will be taking place in Shomayim
when the בעל קורא reads
the story of Yosef HaTzaddik.
The Sefarim HaKedoshim tell us that
When a Parsha is read in the Torah
that causes a התעוררות of that Parsha,
again and again and again
every year.
And this year,
when the בעל קורא will read וימאן,
and the Ribono shel Olam
will call פמליה של מעלה together.
And the Ribono shel Olam will say,
חזו בניי חביביי!
Look at my precious children!
After so many years in Galus,
such a bitter Galus, so many Nisyonos,
and they are not only
not getting worse,
they are getting better.
They are working on themselves.
Yes, it's a struggle.
Yes, we don't always win,
but we're all fighting,
and many times we are overcoming.
We can't begin to imagine
what type of רעש this will
cause in פמליה של מעלה.
And we can only daven
that this should be
the final רעש in פמליה של מעלה.
And in this zechus,
we should all be zoche
together as one
to go out of this terrible Galus,
and together with all of Klal Yisroel,
be משמח in the Simcha
of ביאת משיח צדקנו,
במהרה בימינו, אמן.
