בָּנֶיךָ וּבְנֹתֶיךָ נְתֻנִים לְעַם אַחֵר, וְעֵינֶיךָ רֹאוֹת, וְכָלוֹת אֲלֵיהֶם, כָּל-הַיּוֹם; וְאֵין לְאֵל, יָדֶךָ.
פְּרִי אַדְמָתְךָ וְכָל-יְגִיעֲךָ, יֹאכַל עַם אֲשֶׁר לֹא-יָדָעְתָּ; וְהָיִיתָ, רַק עָשׁוּק וְרָצוּץ--כָּל-הַיָּמִים.
וְהָיִיתָ, מְשֻׁגָּע, מִמַּרְאֵה עֵינֶיךָ, אֲשֶׁר תִּרְאֶה
As the Jewish people readied themselves to read the Parsha that outlines the contours of the terrible Galus we have endured
We note the resilience, ingenuity, and faith in the Halachic system of Rabbanim and Poskim who heroically and with great sensitivity dealt with the angst filled questions that arose in that world of constant warfare and strife
None Shone brighter than one who was considered by many as the pre-eminent authority of his time
