The Vorkey Rebbe and the Meaning of Re'ey

א"י קרפ םירבד רפס :הָלָלְקוּ הָכָרְבּ םוֹיַּה םֶכיֵנְפִל ןֵתֹנ יִכֹנָא הֵאְר פכ"ו

Once on Shabbos Kodesh Parshas Re'ey, The Rebbe Reb Yitzchok of Vorkey ZY”A, spent Shabbos by a simple villager. The villager asked The Rebbe to say Torah, but the Rebbe responded that the villager should say Torah. The villager responded that he does not know anything, only on the definition of the Possuk "Re'ey Onochie", he can explain. He said as follows, Re'ey Onochie, as translated in Polish, "Patch sabiyeh – meaning – look into yourself". And this Torah the Vorkoh Rebbe would say every year, in the name of the villager.
