...The Holy One Blessed be He only exiled the children of Israel amongst the nations in order that they collect amongst themselves converts, as it is said in Hoshea 2:25 - "I will sow her in the land.."
does a person not sow a single seed to get a return of many?
(based on the teachings of the arizal)
והנה, מודעת זאת מאמר רז"ל, שתכלית בריאת עולם הזה הוא ש(תנחומא נשא טז): "נתאוה הקב"ה להיות לו דירה בתחתונים". ו
It is a well-known Rabbinic statement that the purpose of the creation of this world is that the Holy One, blessed be He, desired to have an abode in the lower worlds.
Rebbi said in the name of rabbi Simon in the name of rabbi shimon chasida:
Now in this world (in the time before moshiach comes) when one goes out to pick figs on Shabbass the figs do not tell him anything but in the world to come (when moshiach comes) when one will go to pick figs they (the figs) will shout Out don't do it it's Shabbass today.
