Tanya with Rochel Schmukler
Tanya Chapter 5 part 2. When Divine wisdom becomes your own. Unreal!
Understanding the Torah offers an incredible advantage above all other mitzvot: the Torah we study literally becomes part of our very being, which is why it is called "bread." Firstly, it integrates into us; secondly, it provides nourishment and life energy to our soul. In this way, Torah is like food for the soul, while mitzvot are the garments that clothe it. Our Sages teach that Torah is equivalent to all the mitzvot because it not only sustains the soul but also acts as a garment as we strive to understand it. And when we articulate the words of Torah out loud, it envelops us in an encompassing Divine light.
