י״א בתשרי ה׳תשפ״א
Shem Olam / Part 2, Ch. 3 – 91
The verses of reproach describe the Jewish people as ‘A deprecate people who are not wise’. The term deprecate seems much worse than not wise, so if a person is deprecate, there is no point in mentioning that he is not wise. But our Sages said, ‘If only they would forsake me and not my Torah, for the light within will bring them back’. If a deprecate person would only learn Torah he would correct his ways, but if he is not wise enough to utilize his time learning, he is hopeless. We must cleave to the Torah because it is our only hope.
"והאמת בלתי שום ספק כלל, שאם היה העולם כולו מקצה עד קצהו פנוי חס ושלום אף רגע אחד ממש מהעסק והתבוננות שלנו בתורה, כרגע היו נחרבים כל העולמות, עליונים ותחתונים, והיו לאפס ותוהו חס ושלום". (נפש החיים)
