Rav Moshe Sternbuch shlita CHEERING UP THE DEJECTED

CHEERING UP THE DEJECTED “And they told him, saying, "Yoseph is still alive," and that he ruled over the entire land of Egypt... and the spirit of their father Yaakov was revived” (45:26-27) Osher’s  daughter  Serach  was  rewarded  by  going  straight  to Gan  Eden in  her  lifetime accompanied  by  600,000  angels for  telling  the news  to  Yaakov, especially since  she  did  so gently and gradually (Targum  Yonoson on  46:17  and Bamidbor 26:46).  In  return  for  reviving  Yaakov’s spirit, she merited eternal life for her own spirit. Similarly, anyone who cheers up the dejected, reviving their spirits, receives eternal rewards for their efforts.

Based on droshos by Rav Moshe Sternbuch shlita, raavad of Yerushalayim. To receive these weekly divrei Torah email benipray@netvision.net.il
