618 —הרחבת הסיוע והמאמץ בחינוך לילדי תימן

B"H, 1st of Sivan, 5710.

To the administration of Talmud Torah and Yeshiva of Russian Immigrants in Eretz HaKodesh, may G‑d be upon them and grant them life.

Shalom u'Vrachah!

I gratefully acknowledge receipt of your letter from the 16th of Iyar, along with the list of students, may they live. I read with pleasure your detailed report about the expansion of your work.

It is a very good thing that you are taking concrete actions for the benefit of proper education for Yemenite children, and surely you will strengthen and intensify these efforts even more.

This is in accordance with the constant demand of my father-in-law, the Rebbe hk"m: 'Morgen darf zayn gor andersh' (Tomorrow must be completely different). Certainly you are doing all you can to expand the circle of those who assist you in both your material and spiritual work. It is clear that the more each person increases his devotion—to be among those who come to purify (and also to purify others, as implied—see Likkutei Torah D"H Hashem Li b'Ozrai p.85)—the more he will merit the assurance that "they assist him."

I have asked Haraha"ch etc. etc. Rabbi Chaim Mordechai Aizik Chodakov to write you some suggestions regarding the study program, and surely his letter will reach you in a few days.

With best wishes for all good things and receiving the Torah with joy and inwardness.

Summary

The Rebbe teaches that expanding one's efforts in education—especially for those in need—and increasing one's circle of supporters brings greater Divine help. Dedication to uplifting oneself and others ensures G‑d's assistance in all endeavors.
