לקוטי שיחות חלק ח׳ - חקת א

The discussion begins by examining the opening verse 'This is the decree (chok) of the Torah.' The term chok refers to mitzvot that transcend human reasoning and are followed purely as divine decrees.

The Rebbe distinguishes between mitzvot that are rational (mishpatim) and those that are chukim, highlighting the importance of accepting the latter with pure faith and commitment.

The Lubavitcher Rebbe further explains that the ultimate essence of a chok is its divine origin, which requires one to fully submit to Hashem’s will without intellectual questioning. It represents an absolute bond beyond reason.

Additionally, he notes that achieving this level of acceptance fosters a deeper spiritual state, aligning one's actions and thoughts with higher divine realities.

Through this teaching, the Rebbe encourages embracing both the understandable and mysterious aspects of Torah to forge a complete, harmonious relationship with God.
