our responsibility as jewish people particularly as hasidim is to influence and elevate the world but we cannot do that if we ourselves are invested in the world this is on the topic of both the parish kislev tells it on the last shabbos of the maggot of surrounded by his holy students he said the torah tells us that yaakov sent malachim angels to asav appears rashi malachi rashi explains malachim literally literally sent angels not messengers as you might think it is says the maghed of message that the emphasis of the word also means that which is tangible is that yaakov sent the tangible element of the angels to asap but the spiritual soul of those angels he retained it's a well-known story amongst siddhim and the river asks some questions about it number one the fact that jacob sent angels to asap is surprising because you're not supposed to use angels for your own personal use the lloyd bennet adam and he didn't send people stabilization so the logical reason must be because he didn't only simply want to send a message to asap but he wanted to refine and elevate asap key part of our conversation to refine and elevate him that's why he specifically chose to send angels so they could impact asap and they could elevate asa which only raises the question but because he wants to elevate asap and logically he should have sent the spiritual dimension of the angels because that's where the power would come from to elevate asap so it doesn't seem to make sense if the goal is to elevate asap why only send the tangible part of the malachi and secondly that's a technical detail now let's talk about the whole story because the whole story doesn't seem to make sense
