Similarly, we find ourselves now in a time when every Jew must ignite the zeal within. To put it off is dangerous. One must ignite their own fire, speak with others, and not be afraid of arguments or opposition. The fire has kindled the Golus walls, and there are no proofs needed – it is clear that many have become lost on a crooked path. People who oppose, who constantly persecute, cannot take down the truth. We don’t find this announced, but now is the time to act.
