The Connection with Chag HaGeulah

9.

This is the special connection between all the above and the Chag HaGeulah of the Frierdiker Rebbe on the 12th and 13th of Tammuz, which falls (in many years) during the week of parshas Chukas. This theme is clearly discernible in the redemption of the Frierdiker Rebbe:

We see empirically that the victory and redemption that occurred on the 12th and 13th of Tammuz at that time, which even bolstered Judaism and Torah in that country, continues to have an effect until today. This victory already succeeded in establishing in that country three generations of Torah observant Jews. And when Torah is adhered to for three generations, the Torah rules: ‘{The Torah} shall not be absent from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your children, nor from the mouth of your children’s children… from now on, for all time.’

Furthermore, Jews that for many generations had been torn away from Torah and Judaism because of the dire situation and conditions in that country, ‘benefit’ from the effects of the redemption until today! This event inspires them to return to a life of Torah and Judaism now.

By performing the activities, as befitting, on the Chag HaGeulah, to bolster and publicize Torah and Judaism, including the timely charge to spread the wellsprings of Chassidus outward, we expedite ‘the arrival of the Master,’ the King Moshiach, speedily in our days. Amen.
