Tanya for the 18th of Menachem Av, י׳׳ח מנחם אב

Daily Tanya by Mrs. Tsyrl Turen

Episode notes

The radiance emanating from the “form” of the letters—a radiance that emanates from G-d’s attributes, wisdom, and will—is merely found בְּתוֹכוֹ, within the internality of the Divine utterance that creates and vitalizes this world; it is not manifest. That which serves as the source of the creation and vitality of this world is the externality or “body” of the letters, the “breath” of Divine speech.
