Shalom u'Vrachah!

In response to your notice about your move to a new home: May it be G‑d's will that it should be at an auspicious and successful time, and that this change brings increased good and blessing. Especially through the merit of your involvement in the institution for Jewish women, Lamed Binyan, Ishti Beisi, so they can build homes in Israel.

In your days and ours may the ordinance of Knesses Yisrael be fulfilled—the agunah is like a woman whose husband went overseas intending to return (Eichah Rabbah), "As in the days of your exodus from Egypt," "Each man and his household came," and "Each man and his household ascended," also "the stones of his house and beams of his house" (Taanis 11a; see also Midrash Tehillim end of ch. 73), that they should be established in the Land of Life, Nachalas Tzvi. But it must be with oils fatter than milk and sweeter than honey (Chagigah 13a)—the study of the inner dimension of Torah—through which "with it they will go out from exile with mercy" (Zohar III 124b), when it is revealed below in the last generation at the end of days, and because of this: "You shall proclaim liberty throughout the land" (Tikkunei Zohar Tikkun 6 and its end).

Summary

The Rebbe teaches that helping Jewish women build homes is a great merit connected to redemption. Through such efforts and learning the inner Torah, we bring blessing into our lives and hasten liberation with compassion.
