In Whose Merit Does the World Exist? • The Daily Lesson from Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a

Here is a summary of the topics from the daily lesson as delivered by our teacher Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a – yesterday after the Maariv prayer on Wednesday night, the eve of the 21st of Kislev 5786, Parshat Vayeshev:

1. Today, Chatzot is at 23:00, until then all the boys study Rashi on the parsha.
2. It is also necessary to study Rashi on Adah and Zillah, for if they had not existed, the world would not exist.
3. Because Adam HaRishon for 130 years did not want to have children. Until he was told that Chanoch and Methuselah would come, and there would also be righteous people.
4. Even Noah did not agree to have a fourth child. He said with two (Cain and Abel) they killed each other, so three is certainly enough.
5. The girls recite Tehillim until Chatzot, afterwards they will recite Chatzot.
6. Everyone should study with his wife Likutei Halachot, the laws of Erev Gimmel.
