I would like to
move on to an idea that Rav Chaim Shmulevitz writes in the Shiurim that he gave
in the ’67 war. They are printed in the new Sichos Mussar the ones that have a
section L’regel Hazman. He asks a question on the Parsha. Rochel is buried at
the side of the road. Why is she buried at the side of the road? Later in
Parshas Vayechi, Yaakov Avinu reveals the secret as it says in Rashi to 48:7 (ואקברה שם: ולא הולכתיה
אפילו לבית לחם להכניסה לארץ, וידעתי שיש בלבך עלי [תרעומת], אבל דע לך שעל פי
הדבור קברתיה שם שתהא לעזרה לבניה כשיגלה אותם נבוזראדן, והיו עוברים דרך שם, יצאת
רחל על קברה ובוכה ומבקשת עליהם רחמים, שנאמר (ירמיה לא יד) קול ברמה נשמע רחל
מבכה על בניה וגו', והקב"ה משיבה (ירמיה לא טו) יש שכר לפעולתך נאם ה' ושבו
בנים לגבולם). That someday
Klal Yisrael would go to Galus, on their way they would pass Kever Rachel and
she would Daven for them. She is the one because Klal Yisrael passes her Kever.
Rav Chaim Shmulevitz asks a question. He said
the Imahos in heaven know what is going on, Avraham, Yitzchok, and Yaakov know
what is going on. Rochel and Leah know what is happening. What is the
difference if Klal Yisrael passed the Kever or did not pass the Kever? Says Rav
Chaim Shmulevitz an awesome idea. He says that from this you see the Koach
Hari’iya. You might know something and be fully aware of it but until you see
it, it doesn’t affect you. Even the Imahos, even after death and they were
buried, if the people fleeing the Churban are going to pass in front of Kever
Rochel, just the fact that her Neshama sees it causes a Hisragshus, a feeling,
a Hergish.
