Eitsa Amuka

Reading the paragraph starting with Yeshayahu 50:4, one is left with the awesome nature of the prophet. Against the odds, the opposition strenghtens him. A daily portion, a spiritual portion, is all he needs. We have seen a similar figure, Ramchal. A daily portion of Divrei Emet, of the secrets of Torah, and the many opponents have no chance.

From this, one can learn an Eitsa Amuka, and it is a deep one indeed. The Geula will come without a doubt, in a way that is straight in the eyes of HaShem, through the very opposition against it.

קרא ממזרח עיט מארץ מרחק איש עצתו אף דברתי אף אביאנה יצרתי אף אעשנה

(Yeshayahu 46:11)
