Out of the Fire - Megillas Esther

Rav Moshe Weinberger on the Megillah When do we accept the obvious truth that “cursed is Haman” and “blessed is Mordechai” (Megillah 7b), and when must we look beyond what our eyes see and our ears hear? When does Hashem want massive accomplishments from us, and when should we emphasize the “little” things? How do we reconcile our inner Jewish soul with the seemingly defective people we have become? What does Purim teach us about being parents, teachers, and friends? This Megillah, with commentary drawn from Rav Moshe Weinberger’s teachings from recent years, addresses these questions and others by circling around and building upon four themes: Readers may trace these themes throughout the Megillah using icons beside each part of the commentary, enabling them to delve into various parts of the Megillah associated with each theme, and thereby truly connect to each topic; this will help make this Purim a more meaningful and transformative experience. In the merit of the growth, connection with Hashem, and inspiration readers draw from these teachings, may Hashem annul our enemies’ plans, frustrate their intentions, and bring their evil plans down on their own heads, just as He did on Purim.
