On Humility and When Apologies Are Not Required

ד' סיון, ה'תשל"ג
The Rebbe clarifies that humility before a greater person is not always appropriate, and if someone mistakenly offends the community without cause, there is no obligation for the community to seek his forgiveness.

[ד' סיון, ה'תשל"ג]

שלום וברכה!

מובן

: 1) שאין נוסח דהתרפסות קטן לפני הגדול שייך בנדו"ד

כלל

. 2) באם פ' טועה ופוגע בציבור

על לא דבר כלל

– אין זה סיבה שיבקשו .. סליחתו הוא וכו'!!

Daled Sivan, 5733.

Shalom u'Vrachah!

It is understood: 1) There is no concept of a formula of self-abasement from the lesser to the greater in this context at all. 2) If a certain person errs and offends the community for absolutely no reason—this is not a reason for them to seek his forgiveness, etc.!


Summary

The Rebbe teaches that humility must be genuine and context-appropriate, and that apologies are not required when an offense was baseless or unintentional.
